Makes sense.

I am Zoe Northeast, granddaughter of Maximilian Double.
 
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

From one who knows.  A checker did what it said on the tin.  1000 somethings were on the paperwork on an arriving vessel, the checkers checked the consignment was correct.

Makes sense.   An army "bean counter", but I dare say still important to the war effort.
