168 Pioneer Regiment RLC

168 Pioneer Regiment is tasked with providing Specialist Logistic Pioneer Support primarily to the British Army - a role that calls for this huge variety of skills and abilities. All this, as well as being trained soldiers. In any military operation, the British Army requires skilled personnel to carry out these vital jobs. This task is Specialist Logistic Pioneer Support.

The Regiment consists of a Regimental Headquarters and six Pioneer Squadrons, 2 in the North East of England and four based at Grantham, in Lincolnshire. 168 Pioneer Regiment is one of the largest RLC TA units with a peacetime strength of 633 officers and soldiers, rising to 696 in war. There are opportunities to undertake Adventure Training and to enter Military Skills, shooting and sporting competitions. Many TA Pioneers spend time attached to Regular Army units, in places such as Oman, Canada, The Falkland Islands, Bosnia and Germany.
