Deruelle Posted January 27, 2007 Share Posted January 27, 2007 Hi everybody, Have a look to my own medals I received during my duty. I was Mar?chal des Logis (Sergeant) in the 1st Regiment du Train ? Vincennes near Paris. I'm doing research in the Service Historique de l'Arm?e de Terre during two years; I was volunteer.My first unit was the 24e r?giment d'infanterie and when this unit was disolved in 1997, I was transfered in the 1st regiment du train.regardsChristophe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hendrik Posted January 27, 2007 Share Posted January 27, 2007 My first unit was the 24e r?giment d'infanterie and when this unit was disolved in 1997, I was transfered in the 1st regiment du train.Hello Christophe,Yes, thanks for the pictures ! I have one question : what are the tasks or functions of a "r?giment du train" as opposed to an infantry regiment ?Cheers,Hendrik Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deruelle Posted January 27, 2007 Author Share Posted January 27, 2007 Hi Hendrik, The tasks of a Train unit are to help all the others units to realise their tasks, i.e logistic. I don't have all the clues here, so I will make some research. My job at this time is to work in a desk like a researcher. I've done this job for two years. I remember each time I want to do some military taskes, they said : "it's not your job here". That's life. RegardsChristophe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
