Royal Pioneer Corps - Bassingbourn Passing Out Parade - 17th May 1990

ROYAL PIONEER CORPS BASINGBOURNE PASSING OUT PARADE 1986 DEPOT THE QUEENS DIVISION BASSINGBOURN 17TH MAY 1990 The Depot trains all adult recruits (those over 17 years old on enlistment) and all ex Junior Soldiers from the Junior Infantry Battalion, Shorncliffe, who come to complete Phase II of their training. All have chosen to be Infantrymen in one of the three Regiments of the Division. The Depot also trains all adult recruits of the Royal Pioneer Corps; they undertake the same training as infantry recruits before going to their Corps for further specialist training. The period of training for the Adult recruits is 19 weeks and for the ex Juniors 11 weeks. During this time, which is physically tough and demanding, recuits learn the basic skills of the Infantryman and, on commpletion of their training they are capable of joining battalions anywhere in the world. Although the Royal Pioneer Corps recruits will still need to complete further specialist training, they would be able to fight as Infantrymen should the need arise. On this occasion Burmna Platoon will be reviewed by Lt Col Macdonald of the Royal Pioneer Corps. Passing out are... PTE ADAMS PTE ALFORD PTE BOARDER PTE ELLIOT PTE EVANS PTE RAUJLER?
