FIRE ORDERS PAMPHLET –

Numerous applications have been received for further copies of this pamphlet.  These can be obtained on payment from the Yorkshire Printing Company, Hull Road, York.

Northern Command Order No.337.

LEAVE WARRANTS – CHANGE OF STATIONS –

It has been decided that in cases where a unit changes its station while officers or men are on leave a warrant may be issued from the home of the officer or man concerned to the new station.  In the event of the change of station having been arranged before the officer or man proceeds on leave, it will not be necessary to issue Army Form O.1799 or O.180, as a single ticket will only be required for the outward journey on leave, which should be paid for by the passenger.

Authority, War Office letter No. 14/General Number/5540 (Q.M.G.2.), dated 5^th March, 1915.
