Ernest Upfold 32nd Field Ambulance Royal Army Medical Corps Ernest Upfold entered the Egyptian theatre on 19th of December 1915, as member of the Royal Army Medical Corps. As annotated on his first Service Medal and Award Roll (for the 1914-15 Star), he was assigned to the 32nd Field Ambulance until 25th of September 1916, when he was transferred to the Army Service Corps as a Driver, Horse Transport. His second Service Medal and Award Roll (for British War Medal and Victory Medal) provides no new information, but does confirm Driver Upfold's transfer to the A.S.C. on 25th of September 1916. 32nd Field Ambulance was attached to the 10th (Irish) Division, and by the time Private Upfold joined the 32nd F.A., the 10th (Irish) Division had moved to the Salonika theatre. As neither Ernest Upfold's service record nor a pension record were accessible, it cannot be determined whether or not he remained with the 10th (Irish) Division when it moved from Salonika back to Egypt in September 1917, before proceeding to the Palestine campaign. Based upon aforementioned records, he was transferred to "A.R.Cl.Z." status on 15th July 1919. For his service in both the R.A.M.C. and A.S.C. during the Great War, he was awarded the 1914-15 Star, the British War Medal and the Victory Medal. Clayton B. Austin Add to this record.
