SRD Posted 19 August , 2013 Posted 19 August , 2013 Can someone please help me with a transcription and interpretation of the attached detail from Arthur Allen Smith's Casualty Form - Active Service. So far I think I've got: "Adm 13 C.C.S. P.N.O. In the Fld 18/9/16Trans to 27 Train "To England per H.S 27/9/16Cambria ex / Can. G.P." I can't read the line inserted between "27 Train" and "To England" I can't understand most of it other than he was transferred to England. The previous pages show a history of misdemeanours resulting in various spells of Field Punishment No.1 between 12/11/14 and 2/6/16 including one of 3 months and culminating in one of 84 days which must have taken him pretty close to the first date above. He was at Mebsey Park Military Hospital, Birkenhead. 28/9/16 - 14/10/16 with Rheumatism and transferred to the reserve on 3/7/19 The page can be found at British Army WWI Pension Records 1914-1920 S > Sm > Smi > 12333 on Ancestry. Thanks.
Stebie9173 Posted 19 August , 2013 Posted 19 August , 2013 I would say the form reads: Admitted to No. 13 C.C.S. (Casualty clearing Station) P.U.O. - Pyrexia (fever) of unknown origin Transferred to No. 27 (Hospital) Train (a railway train) To England per (aboard) H.S. (Hospital ship) Cambria ex (previously at) No. 1 Canadian General Hospital Steve.
