TA - 76 Engineer Regiment (Volunteers)
I was asked to form this unit page on here by David "Dinky" Dallas, his email was as follows;
Could you possibly add 76 Engineer Regiment (V) who were the Scottish sister Regiment of 77 Engr Regt(V). I served with 236 Field Squadron at Kinloss till disbandment in 99. But now reformed at Elgin in 07. 76 Engr formed in 1992 and consisted of 234 Fld Sqn Leeming, 236 Fld Sqn Kinloss, 237 Fld Sqn Lossiemouth, with 277 Fld Sqn later becoming the Hq & Supp Sqn. Now 236 are part of 71 Engr Regt, with 11 Rhq troop at Leuchars( on disbandment 277 became 117 Hq & Supp Sqn with 71 Engr Regt, then Rhq troop 71, now 11 Troop), 102 Fld Sqn Paisley, 124 Field Sqn Cumbernauld. 71 had 72 Fld Sqn Gateshead til 2008 but they returned to be a regt then.
