Another two important NZEF Ordnance officers who served at Gallipoli worth mentioning are Brigadier Thomas Joseph King and Major Norman Joseph Levien, both of their Lieutenants commission in the NZ Army Ordnance Corps are dated 6 Oct 1915.

Brigadier King had a long military service but as far as the 1st NZEF goes he was struck off the NZEF strength when he was invalided back to New Zealand in March 1916, after which King was employed with the Ordnance Department (Home Service) in a “temporary” capacity prior to being appointed permanently on the 1st April 1917.

The following is a summary of Major Levien’s service with the NZEF.
