#DDay75: the role of the Royal Engineers (RE) on D-Day & in the #Normandy campaign is another aspect of the #WW2 British & Commonwealth story that deserves more focus. On most beaches the RE were among the first to land, clearing the beaches making the assault possible. 1/14 pic.twitter.com/FMY8oi36jw

Sounds like a potential plan. Let’s have a look at the PXR when you’re back and decide.

Visited Ukrainian army units on the Line of Contact where they are learning important lessons in their war against Russian-backed separatists. Lessons which we must learn too. #BearsBotsLittleGreenMen #Ukraine @DefenceU pic.twitter.com/ZXdRSeJWtj

As we delve into the #Italy Campaign & #GothicLine that little bit further, today we took time to remember those that gave their lives in battle with a short service from our @ArmyChaplaincy at #Coriano @CWGC. @AngliaTours @RE_Hist_Society #wewillrememberthem pic.twitter.com/SfD9JAinYo

#OTD in 1942, Percy Hobart. He formed 7 Armoured Division, was dismissed because of his "unconventional" ideas but was re-enlisted by Churchill. He introduced special tanks, such as Crocodile, AVRE, ARK, Crab and Duplex Drive within his 79 Armoured Division. #WW2 #HISTORY pic.twitter.com/nITZebn39z

No, it is run by certain committee members of the RE Historical Society; one of whom is currently serving in Chatham. Do PM with any specific requests if we can help

@MvrSp All the D-Day footage got us thinking - modular dragon teeth? Sections no more than 20kg, carried in the back of a section vehicle with a concrete column inserted to hold it firm. Can be emplaced with nil plant requirement. pic.twitter.com/hP6nHUwHg5

Somewhat belatedly my article about #DDay75 has been published on line at express.co.uk/news/uk/113828… but would stress it took great efforts on ALL fronts at sea, on land & in the air to defeat Nazi Germany. The new Normandy Memorial to the fallen is important in remembering that.
