Remembered Today:

AOC Terminology


Peter35

Recommended Posts

I’ve come across these two acronyms in a 1913 Army Ordnance Gazette and have been unable to ‘decode’ them:

 

“regulations  which  govern  a  P.O.O. with  a field force  to-day”

 

“the instructions of the R.A.O.S.  of  1912”.

 

Could members assist, please? Further, I suspect an explanation of the actual terms themselves would not go astray, either.

P O O = Principal Ordnance Officer. The most senior ordnance officer with the force.

R A O S = Regulations for Army Ordnance Services. The handbook for what the AOC do.
