speciality numbers

Does anyone know where I can find the list of military specialities and their numbers used during the GPW?
Many thanks in advance.

Wow! That's quite a question. I am hoping Dave or Desantnik might shed some light on it. I am clueless.

I have a list for 1939 - they only go to the #130's but seem to work OK for GPW documents.

Simon,
That's what I am looking for. Was there more than 130?
I mean - the highest I have seen was 121 for a nurse.

I will answer to Your message in a minute, sorry for the delay.

I have a Reserve Officer book from 1957 with plenty of war service for a dentist (292).

Not sure when this numbering system started.

Dentist????
Most unusual!
I haven't even imagined that it was treated differently than a normal medical officer...

Could You post the list from 1939 here?
