Another one, same soldier "28 days FP No1  for W? on AS" 

 

28 days field punishment No 1 for W? on Active Service

"While".

 

WOAS is often seen: it is short for "while on active service" because some offences could be punished more severely if that was the case. In this case, there were two offences: being drunk, and breaking [out of] arrest.

Thank you Russ. Had never heard of a Divisional Rest Station.

 

Thank you too Ron, much obliged to both of you.
