    I'm transcribing some war diaries about the Dunkrk evacuation of the Royal Artillery and there is an abbreviation I am struggling to find the meaning of.

    There is a sentence referring to Personnel consisting of "6 Officers and 80 R.O's".. I'm stuck on what "R.O" is an abbreviation for. Does anyone have any suggestions?
    Thanks \qqqq
