    REME soldier killed in Afghanistan on 2 September

    It is with great sadness that the Ministry of Defence must confirm that a soldier from the Royal Electrical and Mechanical Engineers, operating with The Light Dragoons Battle Group, has been killed.
    The soldier was killed as a result of an explosion that happened whilst on a vehicle move in the Babaji district, central Helmand province, on the evening of 2 September 2009.

    O God of power and might, whose all-pervading energy is
    the strength of nature and man, inspire, we pray Thee, us
    Thy servants of the Royal Electrical and Mechanical
    Engineers with the quickening spirit of goodwill, that as
    honest craftsmen, seeking only the good of all in peace or
    war, we may glorify Thee both in the work of our hands
    and in the example of our fellowship, through Jesus Christ
    our Lord.

                Just goes to show the little ditty that goes with our stable belt is a load of cobblers

                Blue for the seas we never crossed
                Red for the blood we never losy
                Yellow the reason why

                Duty done mate

                  Phil, that brings back memories, I was at the RAOC Apprentices with the REME guys at Deepcut, the definitions of the stable belts were very true and well versed, we will never forget them.
