Title: Army stamp
Post by: Davedrave on Tuesday 30 September 25 09:24 BST (UK)

Admittedly, this isn’t actually handwriting, but I’d be very grateful for any interpretations of this stamp. I think I know what it possibly reads, but any suggestions for filling in, based on what can be read, and the likely letter spacings, would be helpful.
