Not "watertight" but a couple of AMW badges posted by members have , what I would term , "reasonable" provenance .
1. Dumdum posted a group of 3 badges including a AWM (3107) which he assumed were all for
Norman Stanley WROE but when I checked the AWM it comes up to
Tom WROE . A bit more checking and I discovered that
Mr. T. Wroe was actually Norman Stanley Wroe's father .

2. Jackhr posted about a badge (1333) which he also had other relevent items :

This badge number is for William Woodridge (which ties in with other items)
but also appears on the list under the name of George Albert Honey. (clerical/transcription error ?)
Unfortunately neither of these two have documents that I can check but the 'circumstantial evidence' seems pretty strong.
Just checked another 5 documents on Munitions site and each has , what I personally think , are badge numbers on their "Certification" (discharge) pages , also found written correspondence where a worker quoted his AMW number.
Keep discussing !
