  • For regimental duties I did a stint as Barman in the 36 Reg screws mess in 1988 for 4 months. Fucking excellent. Always wore civies and had 4 days on and 4 days off. Used to gamble on the slot machine after closing and got shitfaced for free.When I went back to 50 Fld Sqn I felt like I'd just joined up again I was that un-fit. Great times. It looks just like the mess of 88? Can it be, Is there an FN (ARGIE SLR) on the left hand side as you walk in? I thought invicta barracks was redeveloped?

  • Hi there.

    Good luck in the Corps mate.

    If you scroll through the comments here you'll find they are already posted. Not many people keep up the old Corps songs these days. You may be interested to know that the Corps meets en-masse at Twickenham for the Army Navy rugby every year on May 3rd. You can get a general idea of the cammeraderie on a social scale.

  • HOOORAH

    eNGINEERS FOR LIFE

  • Any HVAC techies in the RE?! if so where do i join up?

  • nice 1 billy reminds me of the bridge

  • can't be as bad as you make out...

    better than  pencil pushin desk job in my opinion...

    i can't wait till selection, they are taking the piss with it

  • sik video lads keep it up

  • I'm thinking of joining the the Royal engineers as a Electrical technician/engineer; i wonder if i should join?

  • sure your not thinking of the REME there?

  • Maybe your right as im currently in between college and university so anything can change.

  • Tony, Dont want to piss on your chips but have you considered the RAF. I'm due to leave the Army after 22years and believe me I cant wait. Things are really bad morale wise etc. Get to know people in all the services and find out whats going on. Seriously, think about something else if you got the brains dont try the Army, please!

    Good luck

    Stace

  • If he has any sense he will join the British Army and join the CRE. u been in for 22years and your saying its bad? u must of enjoyed it to stay in for the full service!

  • Just got caught in the old pension trap. You get to a point and its better to stay in and put up with the shit for a few more years. Got 15 months left and I've been fucked over by the system yet again. Bastards, you're just a number to them they dont care about you, believe me.

  • billy crystal ...legend,cmon the royal engineers

  • ''Ubique lads, Ubique'' Engineer through and through.

  • This song is ace makes me proud to be an "royal engineer"

  • Likewise mate, So proud to hear this.

    I hate being a civvie.

    No one can drink for shit and no fcuker looks out for anyone.

  • To me, this sums up being a squaddie. Blokes I served with years ago, I can ring them at 4 in the morning and they still want to talk. And if you get jumped downtown, when you're on your jack and the old bill don't want to know, you just call your mukka's and the QRF rocks up.

    A British soldier is what I will always be.
