US aircraft record cards meanings!?

Hi

again I have had another record card and need to know a few abbreviations. Looked on the web, a lot for modern but nothing that seems to relate to WWII.

Condition Column
is says Y-Y. Guessing this is fully airworthy?

Date Column
F.Y and C.MO
Assuming this is Fiscal Year and Calender Month. So 2 and 3 is 1942 and March.

Age Column 1, 2, 3. This is age by month.

Flying Time Column - is the confusing one.

This month - Hours / T

The hours is fair enough, say

87
54

Assume the two times in the month could be day and night?

The T is the query. After the 87 is 2 and after the 53 is 9. Thought it might be Take offs which does not fit. Can anyone confirm the meaning of the T column?

Other things in remarks coloumn

WR 1-19-43

O.S. & D.

G & L

If anyone can help with these then great.

regards

MS
