14 years of serving in the Royal Electrical and Mechanical Engineers (REME) (British army)

Here we see some memorable moments from my career in the army so far, 6 units and a wealth of experience and adventures all rolled into one video for your viewing pleasure.
The track in the video is performed by Euro Status Quo - In The Army Now (Remix)
Id like to give a special thanks to Jake Cardall for helping me with some of the photos!

Do you come from Wales, or is there a unit in Wales?

[@AJoeA]

Not from Wales, I lost a welsh friend and his parents sent me the flag out in a welfare parcel...

[@stemartin6671]

Ouch those heels/feet pics mate what were those from?

[@AJoeA]

JCLM bud, our instructor made us patrol through waste high stinging nettles and firns, that coupled with the fact it rained constantly made the water soak onto our combats and drain into our boots. the state of my feet by the end of it was mirrored by the other people in my section. was a hellish course that.....

[@stemartin6671]

@@AJoeA sorry bud what’s JCLM stand for? I hope, if I get into basic, I don’t end up with feet like that lol I’m used to giving my feet some torture but that’s something else that mate ouch!!!!

[@AJoeA]

@@stemartin6671 JCLM was the JNCO cardre (for corporals which is a section commander). before you start basic buy some 100 mile running socks and wear them inside your issued socks on pt. your feet will sweat like hell but your skin will stay on your feet lol. good luck with basic!

[@stemartin6671]

@@AJoeA I see buddy cheers, I’ll certainly do that I’ve also been told to talc my feet etc too if you think that will help? And do you have to wear the issue socks or can you wear the running socks on their own?

[@AJoeA]

@@stemartin6671 id recommend wearing issued over the top of the socks as if you break your foot you wont get a pay out as you wasn't wearing issued kit if that makes sense...
