Abreviations???
Permalink   

I'm rying to help the brother of an ex-airman decypher some abbreviations contained in his brother's logbook and wondered if anyone can help. I've checked the books I have but none of the following appear there. The ex-airman was an Air Gunner if that helps.

ATT - CTBA - TOS (could be, taken off service)

this one appears after the airman was repatriated to Canada "Canada WEF"

Thanks for your help.

Hi Bill,

WEF, stands for ......... With Effect From.

I know 'TO' stands for .......... Taken Off. So it may be fair to say that 'TOS' relates to
what you say.

Have a look at this site for the glossary of terms.

'Tab' on the 'site information' and scroll down to 'glossary'

Hi Bill,

"TOS" stands for "Taken on Strength".

Got your package last week BTW, my thanks to you and BB.

Cheers!
Matt

Hello,

Attached documents have nothing to do with abreviations of log books but with abreviations used in the RCAF personal records so I thought this might be interesting for other forum members.....
Regards,

Alexander
