Skipman Posted 27 February , 2021 Author Share Posted 27 February , 2021 Another one, same soldier "28 days FP No1 for W? on AS" 28 days field punishment No 1 for W? on Active Service What does the "W" stand for? Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron Clifton Posted 27 February , 2021 Share Posted 27 February , 2021 "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. Ron Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
