Chris_Baker Posted 28 February , 2008 Share Posted 28 February , 2008 Lt W. E. Burdett. Served with 2/5th King's Own all through the war until his death in 1918. In June 1917 Army List he has RFASR after his name. Can anyone decipher? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daggers Posted 28 February , 2008 Share Posted 28 February , 2008 How about Royal Field Artillery Special Reserve? Doesn't seem to fit with KO, though. Daggers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ian turner Posted 28 February , 2008 Share Posted 28 February , 2008 Don't know if relevant but it looks as if, from his MIC, that he was a territorial, so 'Special Reserve' perhaps....? Ian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris_Baker Posted 28 February , 2008 Author Share Posted 28 February , 2008 He was indeed a TF infantry officer. Can't see any connection with RFA or Special Reserve. That's what makes it rather curious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rflory Posted 29 February , 2008 Share Posted 29 February , 2008 Chris: He does not have RFASR after his name in either the April 1917 or November 1917 Monthly Army Lists so I would suggest that it might be a mistake. Regards. Dick Flory Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
