O.C. D Company, 9th Battalion. Feb 3rd 1918.
I beg to make application for a transfer back to Australia on account of the loss of my three brothers, particulars as under-:
S/Sgt Henderson J.S. 26th Battalion killed. Pte. Henderson R.D. 26th Battalion killed. Pte Henderson E.H. 9th Battalion reported wounded and missing 20/9/17.
As I am the only remaining son my mother looks to me for support financial and otherwise. I have been with the Battalion for 25 months.
Signed
