Waggoner Posted 31 January , 2014 Share Posted 31 January , 2014 WT4 is an ASC prefix. Its exact meaning is unclear. I had thought that it meant a Welshman who had enlisted in the horse transport part of the ASC. The "4" may have referred to the Fourth New Army. However Howard has suggested that the "W" refers to water transport. Clearly, more research into the meaning of this prefix is needed. All the best, Gary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arnhem44 Posted 31 January , 2014 Author Share Posted 31 January , 2014 Thanks everyone for your replies. I checked the Long Long Trail and found the prefix WT4 listed there which it says is for the Welsh Horsed Transport but can't find any info on these men. His details are as follows from a pair of medals recently purchased WT4/069931 Driver Thomas J. Williams A.S.C. . His medal card shows he was only entitled to the pair.
