The Corps of RCEME is an interesting Corps that does a lot of cool and important things. Six occupations. Materials Technicians - Weld, sew, metal machine, paint, work with sheet metal and fibreglass things to make / fix them. Electronic-Optronic Technicians - Fix fire control systems...

What EME occupation did you sign up for within the RCEME? Last count I think there are six of them (only five of which you can join). Helps to guide the discussion as the life of a Veh Tech is different that of a Mat Tech or RECEME Officer.

I can comment on the the RCMS contributions to a doctrinal CER, given I have just seen the updated doctrine TO&E. The CER Integral Support Medical Troop (2-1-1-27) (19 x RCMS, 12 x RCE) is as follows: Unit Medical Station (UMS): 1 x Platoon Commander - Medical Officer (Dive Medicine Trained)...
