ID of WWI ordnance patch

Recently acquired an ordnance uniform with a patch with two IDs. Rob Dalessandro identifies it as Artillery Repair Shop; Jeff Shrader identifies it as Ammunition Reclamation and Salvage. What do you think? I accept the patch/uniform as correct, but am still working on the ID. Have found little to date. Thanks for your input.

Years ago Bob Ford received a group from the WWI veteran with this patch and some other ordnance oddities. The vet was a member of an Ordnance / Artillery Repair Shop. I purchased the ordnance patches from Bob and still have them.

Daniel-

 

Thank you for the valuable information. There was also a patch for Ordnance Repair Shop; would this ARS patch have been part of that group? Thanks again.

Thanks - I had hoped so. Even picked up a copy of their newspaper.

Hello, very beautiful patch. I live at 10 miles about Mehun and I'm jalous about your jacket.

Simon.
