Army Service Corps was the fore-runner of the Royal Army Service Corps which became the Royal Corps of Transport which I believe is now the Royal Logistics Corps. www(.)waggoners(.)co(.)uk/ - remove the brackets - has some links to associations that may be able to help.

Yes my Great Grandfather was in them in WW1. I downloaded his medal details from the National Archives. If you google theres quite a lot of information about them Sheila
