Year 1986
Transcription THE 9TH/IZTH ROYAL LANCERS REGlMENTAI. JOURNAI
MT Troop
MT has continued to tick over in a
happy and hard working environment.
W02 Banks has completed his MTWO
Course and now "knows the ropes",
much to the consternation of some We
bid a fond farewell to the MTO who
was promoted and appointed QM(T)
and we wish him every success for the
future with his new troop.
November saw the arrival of the new
MTO, Lt John Simpson, who came to
us from C Sqn. in January the new
brush swept clean and the MTO insti-
gated a plan whereby MT was to be-
come fully centralised or reduced to it’s
correct establishment and role. After
much deliberation the Sqn Ldrs decided
to opt for the de-ceutralized system so
a period of great change fell upon us.
All Stalwart: went back to their respec-
tive Sqns and with them went the drivers.
We said farewell to LCpls Hampton,
Gobbey, Williams. Marlow and Tprs
Barry. Stokes. Warren, Stanky and
Riley.
This left a very small and compact
team which continues to run vehicle in-
spections and servicing, plus normal
details, Cpls Anderson, Reid and Allen
remain as the backbone of the troop and
they have brought on the younger driv-
ers enormously. We are no longer “Give
us some men” troop, as the men we do
have. are long-term drivers with their
individual HGV requirements being
met whilst doing a worthwhile job.
We have already borne the brunt of
this year‘s eommittments and look for-
ward to the rest of the year with a view
to preparing the Regiment‘s ‘B‘ Vehs
for handover early next year.
