Tuesday 11th February 1919


Billets at Arzignano

Pte. John Bayliss (see 17th December 1918) was reported ‘absent from billets after 9pm’; on the orders of Lt.Col. Francis Washington Lethbridge DSO (see 5th February) he would undergo seven days’ Field Punishment no.2.

Ptes. Alfred Charles Dolphin (see 2nd February) and James Edward Hollingworth (see 2nd February) were posted back to England for demobilization; Dolphin would be demobilized from Wimbledon and Hollingworth from Clipstone.

Pte. Jack Edgar Hall (see 30th November 1918), who was at 16th Convalescent Depot in Marseilles, was posted back to England for demobilization; he would be discharged from the Dispersal Unit at Purfleet.

Pte. William Postill Taylor (see 15th December 1918), serving in France with 2nd/4thDWR, was posted back to England, to be demobilized from Clipstone Camp.

Pte. John William Mallinson (see 29th December 1918), serving with 3DWR at North Shields, was attached to 151st Protection Company, Royal Defence Corps, based at Corbridge.
Cpl. George Arthur Chitticks (see 3rd January 1918) and Ptes. Thomas Henry Dixon (see 10th January), Robert James Dugdale (see 8th September 1917), Thomas Farrow (see 8th September 1917), George William Gamblin (see 8th September 1917), Lewis Hollingworth (see 8th September 1917), Herbert Harry Jepson (see below), Edward Percival (see 8th September 1917), Henry Powell (see 8th September 1917), Richard Race (see below), Isaac Robinson (see 14th January) and Robert Ward (see below) were formally transferred to the Army Reserve Class Z.

In the absence of surviving service records for Herbert Harry Jepson, Richard Race or Robert Ward I am unable to make a positive identification of any of these men or to establish any details of their service, other than the fact that Pte. Race had been an original member of 10DWR.

Lt. Harold Lockhart Waite (see 5th December 1918), serving with the RAF, was transferred to the ‘unemployed list’. He would resume his pre-war career in engineering, whilst living in Finchley.
