Hi All,
The B card of my rencently acquired 1971 late 2A LWT (LHD) has on its last service line, the initials ODA. As far as I've understood there were no "Operational Detachements Alpha" in the BAOR. Can anyone tell me what this could be ? Photo enclosed. Couldn't post b card photo in full, the file is too heavy... I'll try to reduce its size
Many thanks,
Walter Rumsey

Walter I think it is simply Ordnance Depot Antwerp for the storage of BAOR vehicles.

Re: Acronym ODA
Brilliant thank you,
This seems quite logical.
I'm pleased to have its military history, and now I'm wondering what find of markings it may have had...
