Someone is copying and pasting sections of these letters because I am seeing the exact mistakes throughout many of the previous pages. They were forgetting the same capital letters, using a.a.a.g. and forgetting the & in front of it in many letters, etc... They aren't writing them on the lines as seen, EX: Barnes Captain Stuart A.Q.M. Supt &c - all on one line. They are to be separated as we would do any letter.
