Court Martial Transcripts
« on: Tuesday 09 October 18 13:58 BST (UK) »
Hello

I am researching a man, S J Kitson who underwent a court martial in 1917?  Is it possible anywhere to see transcripts of these proceeding?  He was in El Arish, Egypt and in the Air Force.

Many thanks Graham. Do you know what a charge of indecency could entail?

You can look it up in the 1907 Manual of Military Law :
https://archive.org/details/manualofmilitary00greauoft/page/96

The specific act or acts that led to the charge would be described in the charge sheet typically as :  ….indecency in that he on...at... did.....   You'll note there are a number of acts which would come under the umbrella heading.

It is with great difficulty I share with you that in the early hours of 07 August 2021, Maximilian passed away unexpectedly but peacefully.

With deep sadness,
Zoe
