Can anyone help with an abbreviation that is on a soldiers S&C sheet to do with his demob, the line is as follows: Prefix as stated: DV A&S 18 General Demob 19 June 1945 It is the DV that is baffling me and the fact his discharge date was 26 October 1947!!! Has anybody else come across this before, seeing as he would have been one of the first to be demobbed I thought it may have been Delayed Voluntarily!!!! Many Thanks Mick p.s I tried to put a photo of the document but it was too big
Hi Mick, I have found the following from the below link. Could it be he was Vetted to stay longer in service ? DV Defence Vetting DV Developed Vetting DV Direct View Optics DV Direct Vision https://assets.publishing.service.g...e/227048/acronyms_and_abbreviations_dec08.pdf Damion
Thanks Damion, Yes I've seen all the official abbreviations but I don't think any of them fit in with the rest of the entry plus from there he went to Movement Control North West Ports so no vetting would be needed.
