Royal Army Service Corps
The Royal Army Service Corps (RASC) was a key logistical unit of the British Army, established in 1902. Its primary role was to provide transport and supply services, ensuring that troops received the necessary equipment, food, and ammunition during military operations. The corps played a vital part in both World Wars, adapting to the changing needs of warfare.
In 1993, the RASC was merged into the Royal Logistic Corps (RLC), which continues to fulfill similar logistical functions today. The legacy of the RASC remains significant in military history, highlighting the importance of support services in successful military campaigns.
