Marking D-Day 75 years on

By media_commeseditor | 6th June 2019

The RLC’s founding Corps played a crucial role in D-Day in 1944 and on the 75th anniversary the Corps is still front and centre.

In order to help mark the commemoration, 13 Air Assault Support Regiment took part in Motorcycle racer turned TV presenter, Guy Martin’s D-Day Landing on Channel 4.

The programme took a look at the brave endeavours of those who served before us 75 years ago.

Also in the programme, 47 AD Sqn had a starring role in the aerial despatch of a priceless WW2 motorcycle

D-Day was the turning point of WW2. The invasion of northern France in 1944 was the most significant victory of the Western Allies, helping turn the tide in the Second World War.

Lest we forget.

Military tanks, helicopters, sea vessels - every vehicle in the Army needs fuel. As a Petroleum Operator, you will work in a Fuel Squadron and make sure our troops get the petrol, diesel and oil they need. Your training will teach you everything you need to know and later on you can gain further qualifications, progress up through the ranks and build skills you can use in industry.
There are opportunities to conduct work experience packages with industry companies to gain an understanding of working with industry fuel systems and equipment.

As a Movement Controller, your work is vital for keeping the Army moving. Getting it to where it needs to be no matter where that is in the world. It is your job to direct and prepare troops, vehicles and equipment for transport by air, road, rail and sea. You need to be able to think of your feet, be organised and a good communicator. The role provides opportunities to travel and gain qualifications that are recognised outside of the Army too.

Becoming an RLC Mariner means working outdoors on

Becoming an RLC Mariner means working outdoors on the water, all over the world. You need to be able to think on your feet, even in the most challenging of situations and be able to work well under pressure. Acting as part of a vessel’s crew, you will form part of the vessel's watch, helping with navigational safety, stability and security. Your role is also essential to the safety of your vessel, crew mates, passengers and cargo.
We often work alongside the Royal Fleet Auxiliary and in support of the Royal Marines, carrying out real-life tasks such as hurricane and disaster relief in and around the Caribbean.
Aside from seamanship, there are also opportunities to get involved in the huge array of sports represented within the Army, as well as all forms of Adventurous Training - from Alpine skiing and snowboarding to ice climbing and scuba diving.

As a Marine Engineer, you are an important part of the vessel’s crew and will be responsible for maintaining and repairing the craft and its engines. You will be expected to think on your feet and solve problems on a daily basis, you need to be naturally independent, self-motivating and work well under pressure - if a vessel breaks down at sea all eyes quickly focus on the Marine Engineer! You will routinely work alongside the Royal Fleet Auxiliary and in support of the Royal Marines, leading on tasks such as hurricane and disaster relief.
Aside from engineering, there are also opportunities to get involved in the huge array of Army sports as well as all forms of Adventurous Training.

Being a Communications Specialist is all about tea

Being a Communications Specialist is all about teamwork, purpose and pride. As Driver Communications Specialists, we are trained to use radio and digital communications systems and by using these, we are able to make sure our soldiers and officers can be in contact whenever they need to be.
As this is a dual role, we are also drivers in our own right, accountable for our vehicles and equipment.

Even the best locations and adventures would be meaningless without outstanding food services supporting our soldiers. You could be a part of the team whose role is a lot more than just food. As Army chefs, our skills and motivation to deliver the necessary supplies, even in the most challenging environments, are what make us unique.
We deliver the best experience to our units every day; from state banquets and fine dining to supporting humanitarian and disaster intervention across the world. In return, the Army offers fantastic experiences, including: travel, Adventurous Training and opportunities to develop skills outside of the trade.
