Samoan Expeditionary Force, 1914

Samoan Expeditionary Force, 1914.

The annual reunion of members of the N. Z. E. F. who took part in the occupation of German Samoa in August, 1914, will be held in the rooms of the R. S. A., Featherston Street, Wellington, on Saturday evening the 27th of this month.

It will be remembered that this force contained a full company of the Railway Engineers, consisting of six officers and two hundred and fifty-five other ranks, drawn from all services of the Railway Department from Auckland to the Bluff, most of whom proceeded to Egypt or France when the Samoan garrison was relieved.

A cordial invitation is extended to all members of that force living in or near Wellington or who may be visiting Wellington on this date. The Railway Engineers are represented on the Committee by Mr. W. H. Simmons of the Chief Accountant's office.
