Biographical information

Biographical information

Contribute ›
  • A S/Sgt Eric H Kivell, of Infantry Brigade Headquarters, shared Christie's service number of 10/765. This was mostly likely because of a clerical error as both men were part of the Main Body that left NZ in 1914 and both had the same service number at time of embarkation. AWMM
