List of Officers, 1915
The list below contains personal information ranging from salaries, birthdays, date of appointment, whether on leave (and since when and for how long).
Alongside each name is a series of symbols which are defined on page 9, and which inform us whether the individual has passed language examinations,
his membership of professional bodies and whether he was an officer in the Volunteers. If he was on war service (WWI), this is indicated on the final page.
There is some additional information giving the geographical limits of responsibility of the engineers
and slightly different information defining the limits of responsibility of the Traffic Managers.
