The final page of each record is divided into spaces for remarks by senior officers on the soldier's military career, including such aspects as "thought," "disposition," and "personality." Spaces are also provided for marks given to the soldier's in various military activities, and for any prizes or punishments incurred, but in every case these spaces have been left blank.
