15 May 1915 - Two promotions

The War Diary reports two promotions from within the 2nd Divisional Train today:

Private-Farrier Frank Edgerton Mitchell (#1716, orig. #88) from No. 5 Company was promoted to Staff-Sergeant, effective from 25 April.

Sergeant George Leslie Duplessie (#1653, orig. #70) was also promoted to Staff-Sergeant, effective from 26 April.

Presumably the men were given the afternoon off, as usual. The following day was Sunday, and there were no parades, allowing plenty of time for relaxation.
