The regulations for both the Regular and Territorial Force/Territorial
Army changed over the years, and very often the paragraphs were
re-numbered when a new edition came out. We need to know when he was
discharged from the TA, so that we know which edition of TA
Regulations to look at.

For instance, Para 193 of my copy of Regulations for the Territorial
Force for 1912 (amended to Dec 1914) deals with vacancies on the
Permanent Staff, and nothing to do with discharges.
