Help with WW2 records

[Kathmferrier]

I’ve just received my dad’s WW2 record.


There are a few things I can’t read. I’m going to try to post three photos I think they’ll have to be separate posts as I’m getting a message to say file to big when I try to attach them all.

I can’t read the entry for 28/12/46

What is ODI or ODT?
I think OD might be Ordnance Depot in which case the letters might signify the depot? Does that make sense.

Thanks

ODT is  certainly non-standard. If you are right about it being an Ordnance Depot, then I suggest T might stand for a location in Germany located within the British zone of occupation or the Line of Communication through the Low Countries.. Nowhere comes to mind.

However Ordnance Depots were run by the RAOC, not RASC. RASC had their own depots. That is not to say that there couldn't have been a detachment of RASC drivers working from an Ordnance depot to move stocks forward.

You can find a list of post-1945 RASC units here: http://british-army-units1945on.co.uk/royal-army-service-corps/major-units.html
It includes an entry "951 Company. Early 1947. Formed in Germany from personnel of disbanded 507 Coy" This accords with your man's record of postings.

The text is reclassified [as] 2 stars soldier.
