EDWARD1 Posted 21 September , 2019 Share Posted 21 September , 2019 Transcribing a War Diary of the 15th West Yorks which on a number of occasions re disposition of Companies refers to O.B.L EG …."detachments were added to the Battalion and were placed in the O.B.L". Also "HQ details were stationed in the O.B.L" I have checked abbreviations commonly used at The Long Long Trail site and other web pages. Having transcribed many War Diaries its the first time I have encountered O.B.L. What is it? Eddie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin DavidOwen Posted 21 September , 2019 Admin Share Posted 21 September , 2019 Hi Eddie As OBU is Operational Base Unit, might OBL be Operational Base Line? No evidence just a thought. David Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
