Most parts covered a single regiment, subdivided into its various battalions. However, some parts covered groups of units such as the cavalry, smaller infantry regiments or other corps. "Soldiers Died" covers "other ranks" of the army only, not officers. "Other ranks" includes Privates, Lance Corporals, Corporals, Sergeants and Warrant Officers. In some units of the army, the rank Driver, Gunner, Pioneer, Rifleman, Sapper or Trooper is equivalent to Private."Other ranks" includes non-fighting men, such as cooks, stretcher-bearers and transport drivers.The names of 661,960 other ranks are included within "Soldiers Died". The name used by the soldier upon enlisting and in army records is given. This means that the alias appears instead of the true given name (which of course might be unknown to the army). It is a well-known fact that many men enlisted under a false name.,
