The following information is thanks to James Hough

Royal Corps of Transport

http://www.waggoners.co.uk/

The first major development was in 1927 when Royal Army Service Corps (RASC) clubs and funds were amalgamated to form The Royal Army Service Corps Association. At that time there were Branches world-wide, from European Countries in the West, through Egypt in the Middle East to China in the Far East. In 1965 the Corps was re-named The Royal Corps of Transport and the association assumed its present title. Membership then included some ex-members of The Royal Engineers whose trades had been transferred to the new Corps.

In 1993 The Royal Logistic Corps (RLC) was formed by the amalgamation of The RCT, RAOC, RPC, ACC and Postal and Courier elements of the RE and The Royal Corps of Transport ceased to exist.
