'vice' in army docs

Post by PteSpear »

In my great uncle's service documents from his extensive service between 1915 and 1946 it makes several notes such as 'vice Begley', 'vice Mackerel', and 'vice Crowe', but I haven't the foggiest what these refer to?

Does anyone know?

It's usually an 'in place of', so it would be used if somebody covered a duty for somebody else.
You can have peace.
Or you can have freedom.
Don't ever count on having both at once.
