I would be grateful if someone can help me to complete the transcription of the attached line of writing in a WW1 hospital admission form. I read as follows:
Corps: R.S.C.H.T
Company: 66?
Regimental No: ?9856
Rank and Name: Dr ???????????
Date: 15.9.17

I think it's ASCHT
Army Service Corps Horse Transport and his rank was Driver
https://www.longlongtrail.co.uk/army/regiments-and-corps/the-army-service-corps-in-the-first-world-war/army-service-corps-horse-transport-companies/
you'll see there's a 663 company

Thanks. Any thoughts on the Reg. No. and name?
-
The last digit of the company and the first of the regimental number look the same, so 39856?

I've looked more at the Coy and Regiment numbers and I think I see a 2 rather than a 3. I see that there is also a 662 transport company on the Long Long Trail web page. I see the name starting with a "C" and ending with "ire". As for the middle I have no clue. I see the initial as M. Does anyone have any thoughts.

To me the Dr's name is something like Chammiske or Cammiske, Cammick, Cammisk, Charrisk, Charrick. Garrick?
-
The Reg No looks to me like 29856.
