kingoROBBO is an unknown quantity at this point
7597854 Pte JE Cutler ACC

trying to confirm which unit Pte JE Cutler was in, on his medal it has 7597854 Pte JE Cutler ACC ??

on another post on this forum it lists his service number as being part of numbers allocated to the RAOC? (7574001-765700) was the ACC part of the RAOC??

many thanks
Robbo

No.
But that number only means who he originally enlisted with. Nothing to say he didn't transfer to another Corps later.

Welcome to the site Robbo.

"You were given the choice between war and dishonor.
You chose dishonor and you will have war."

(Winston Churchill made this prophetic pronouncement in a House of Commons speech in 1938, just after Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain signed the Munich agreement with Hitler. Chamberlain returned from Germany with the signed agreement in hand, proclaiming that "peace in our time" had been achieved. Churchill attacked Chamberlain's "politics of appeasement" in this and many other speeches.)
