Hello Carol, I am not sure if you are going to find a Catagorization for Joseph. This was right at the end of WWI and Joseph had just finished Training. In Military Parlance a "REP BN" is a Repalcment Battalion, a kind of a holding unit until someone is shipped to there regular unit or back to civilian life.

Thank you for answering... I didn't know what the Rep was and have learned somethin new!
Jeff, that's true, but I gave him the 5th Rep anyway.
