kev barlow Posted 15 March , 2006 Share Posted 15 March , 2006 Private George Alfred Barlow, latterly of the Machine Gun Corps, but originally enlisted in the RASC and given the service number M/335130 - would anyone be able to glean from his number the approximate date he may have been enlisted/conscripted? Is the prefix 'M' significant? Any help much appreciated. Regards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
delta Posted 15 March , 2006 Share Posted 15 March , 2006 Kev "M" signifies he was a mechanical transport (ie truck or ambulance vehicle). As there is there is no figure immediately after the "M" and before the "/", he must have enlisted after 20 November 1916. Stephen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
