Default 2Lt. Falcy.

He appears to have previously served in one of the four battalions converted to pioneer battalions in early 1915. They were the 14th (Service) Bn., the 17th (Service) Bn.(North Eastern Railway Pioneers), the 18th (Service) Bn.(1st Tyneside Pioneers) and the 19th (Service) Bn.(2nd Tyneside Pioneers).
