1 Field Squadron Workshop
South Vietnam 1967-1968
This video has been compiled by COL John Kemp AM (ret'd) ) who served as OC of 1 Fd Sqn RAE during the period 1967/68 while deployed in SVN, to acknowledge the support and contribution of the 1 Fd Sqn RAEMEWksp.
In accordance with the RAEME doctrine, the wksp was an integral part of the Fd Sqn to provide repair and recovery support under all conditions and to fight and defend their area of operations whether on wksp tasks or wider operations of the squadron group.
There is some amazing footage of the conditions under which the wksp was forced to operate, both within the Task Force base and when deployed on offensive operations.
