IAW: in accordance with
IRW: in reference with
BDU: battle dress uniform

But now using no abbreviations anymore this is TMI (too much information).
Thank you Rainer. No problem if they are explained , it can be useful for the future
Here is my contribution to this topic. I have just scanned all my posts on this forum on my abbreviations:
BTW : By the way
OMG : Oh my Gosh! (for Atheists : Oh my God!)
TMO : To my opinion
ICE : In case of Emergency
i.e. : Id Est (latin for c'est a)
CU : See You
WTF : What the F*ck!
LOL : laughing out loud
Apart from these I've used some technical abbreviations in specific topics:
TA2 : Continental Trail Attack 2
PR3 : Michelin Pilot Road3
If you read that topic completely these sort of abbreviations will not be a real problem, I think.
