Combat Engineer

Combat Engineers have a role in every area of the battlefield. At the front we support the rest of the Army, bridging rivers, clearing routes through minefields or using explosives to gain entry into buildings and destroy bridges.

Behind the front line we improve transport routes, construct camps, build runways and carry out explosive disposal. We also use our specialist skills to help rebuild after conflict. We provide humanitarian support in the form of water production, electrical supply, infrastructure and support to medical facilities, which provide essential healthcare to local people. Wherever we are, our skill and versatility is a match for any challenge.
