Unit naming conventions

Naming of Ordnance units within New Zealand was generally based upon the unit locations or function or unit.

Supply Depots were initially named based on the district they belonged to:

• Upper North Island – Northern District Ordnance Depot
• Lower North Island – Central Districts Ordnance Depot
• South Island – Southern Districts Ordnance Depot

In 1968 a regional based numbering system was adopted

• 1 for Ngaruawahia
• 2 for linton
• 3 for Burnahm
• 4 for Waiouru

Some exceptions were:

• 1 Base Depot and 1st Base Supply Battalion, unique battalion sized unit, name was based on role not location
• 1 Composite Ordnance Company, a unique company sized unit, name was based on role not location

When the Royal New Zealand Army Service Corps(RNZASC) became the Royal New Zealand Corps of Transport (RNZCT) in 1979, the supply functions were transferred to the RNZAOC with the 1st number signifying the location with the 2nd number been 4 for all Supply Platoons:

• 14 Supply Platoon, Papakura
• 24 Supply Platoon, Linton
• 34 Supply Platoon, Burnham
• 44 Supply platoon, Waiouru
• 54 Supply Platoon, Trentham

Exceptions were:

• 21 Supply Company – Retained its name as a historical link to the units long history in the RNZASC.
• 47 Petroleum Platoon, Originally 7 Petroleum Platoon RNZASC, when Transferred to the RNZAOC, as it was based in Waiouru it added the Waiouru unit designation 4 and became 47 Petroleum Platoon RNZAOC
