Vehicle

Military vehicles come in lots of different flavours as you would expect. The British Army splits them into the following categories:

• A Vehicles - All things with tracks (and wheels),
• B Vehicles - All things with wheels,
• C Vehicles - All Plant Equipment and Generators

When clumsy squaddies bend or break their matt coloured toys they are sent to Ashchurch where all army vehicles go to be finished off by Vehicle Mechanics of the Royal Electrical and Mechanical Engineers.

Sometimes instead of being sent to Ashchurch for repair, bent bits of equipment remain with the unit and are cannibalised for spares becoming that belle of the ball; the Hangar Queen.
