    Can anyone help me with this abbreviation from my father`s service record. He was in the R.A. and after returning from Burma in Jan. `45 ,whilst in the UK, he volunteered for service overseas, Aug. `45. His record says `Posted to draft RAJXO`, What`s RAJXO mean. I know he was sent to MEF, Palestine, and his record says `Att. BDRA , MEF. Anyone any idea what BDRA means.
