Technician, Fifth Grade (also called a Tech-5 or a T-5) was used by the US Army from 1942 to 1948. It was their attempt to recognize a soldier with rank/grade & $$$$$ for their technical skills. Your father had the responsibilities & was paid at the rank/grade of a corporal, but not to lead men. He had that rank/grade to drive an amphibious tractor in the invasion of Leyte, Oct. 20, 1944, & Okinawa, Apr. 1, 1945. The rank chevron that he wore upon each sleeve was a corporal chevron, but with a "T" beneath the lower stripe. Richard V. Horrell WW 2 Connections.com

What does the T stand for in the army rank SP4 T?
T stands for technician. On 8 January 1942, the rank of Technician was introduced to replace the Private / Specialist rank, which was discontinued by 30 June 1942. This gave technical specialists more authority by grading them as non-commissioned officers rather than senior enlisted personnel. They were parallel to pay grades of the time, going in seniority from Technician Fifth Grade (Grade Five), Technician Fourth Grade (Fourth Grade), and Technician Third Grade (Third Grade). A technician was paid according to his grade, was outranked by the corresponding non-commissioned officer grade but was senior to the next lowest pay grade, and had no direct supervisory authority outside of his specialty. To reduce the confusion this caused in the field, an embroidered "T" insignia was authorized for wear under the chevrons on 4 September 1942. The rank was finally discontinued on 1 August 1948.
