I would go for DISCONTINUED don't know why and this particular abbreviation does not appear in Howard Williamson's collectors guide.

Thanks guys for your help

On another note as he was black watch m.g.c would private russell still have worn his black watch uniform while in the m.g.c or would he have different uniform, badges etc ?

Thanks
