The Soldiers Who Keep The Paras And Royal Marines Running

Paratroopers and Royal Marine Commandos are considered to be elite roles within the British military.

But attached to those units are specialist Royal Engineers.

These soldiers not only fix and build things but also have to pass the same basic training as the Paras and Royal Marines.

For the past two months a group of these engineers have been in Cyprus carrying out a range of construction projects, on Exercise Pinestick.
