First, my apologies for not posting in awhile. My father passed away on the 22nd of July - it's been a difficult time.
Second, I am finally able to start the editorial-notes revision of Pale Guardian (Asher/Ysidro # 7), though it's still a bit hard to concentrate. (I am also taking a certification course for my teaching, NOT what I'd rather be doing at this point, but necessary to earning a living).
Third - Does anybody know what the rank of a Quartermaster's Clerk in the British Army would be, in 1915? I'd guessed a Corporal (since the guy who did the actual Quartermaster job in a regiment was a Sergeant), but the editor is asking, "Could you confirm that?" Anybody know where I could look for the answer?
MANY thanks!

Have been a fan of your books for quite some time now, just found you on GoodReads and added you, so hello and thank you so much for many hours of reading.
Very sorry to hear about your father, my sympathies. It's never easy.
I'm not sure if something like this might assist:

Yes, it is Canadian in the details, based on British however. This is from 1908 British army:

This is British army pay rates by position:

Can't seem to find a "Quartermaster's Clerk", though, in 1915 - can find after 1939, however.
