Substantive rank of major

edit

The article says "he was given the substantive rank of major on 1 March 1881" and then later it says "He was promoted to the substantive rank of major on 21 March 1885". Could someone clarify this? --Bduke (Discussion) 10:14, 13 April 2018 (UTC)Reply

Now corrected. He was promoted to brevet major on 1 March 1881. Dormskirk (talk) 13:16, 13 April 2018 (UTC)Reply
