The Royal Army Ordnance Corps (RAOC) was a branch of the British Army responsible for the supply and management of military equipment and ammunition. Established in 1856, it played a crucial role in logistics, ensuring that troops had the necessary resources for operations. The RAOC was involved in various conflicts, providing support during both World Wars and other military engagements. In 1993, the RAOC was merged into the Royal Logistic Corps (RLC), which continues to handle logistics and supply chain management for the British Army. The legacy of the RAOC remains significant in military logistics, influencing modern practices in the field.
