    Can we tag carrying parties as working parties?

    Yes, unless it is clear that the carrying party is resupplying the front line with material such as ammunition or rations. Most carrying parties seem to be taking material up to the line for Royal Engineer units.

    If the party is actually RESUPPLYING the front line, use the Resupplying tag.

    On this page you have attached here, they should be tagged as Working Party. Where the entry states both working and carrying parties were furnished, you can just tag the word parties with the Working Party tag.
