Pioniertruppen

The Combat Engineer Branch provides support directly and indirectly to the warfighting effort. They build and help maintain much of the infrastructure that the BMF use to train, house, and deploy troops. Combat Engineer built and maintained navigation systems and ports provide the means to deploy vital equipment and other material. Branch Research and Development (R&D) facilities help develop new methods and measures for deployment, force protection, terrain analysis, mapping, and other support.

The Combat Engineer Branch directly supports the BMF in the battlezone, making expertise available to commanders to help solve and avoid engineering and other problems. Forward Engineer Support Teams, may accompany combat engineers to provide immediate support, or to reach back electronically into the rest of the Branch for the necessary expertise. These teams are designed to provide immediate technical engineering support to the warfighter or in a disaster area. Branch professionals use the knowledge and skills honed on both military and civil projects to support the Republic of Bexar and local communities in the areas of real estate, contracting, mapping, construction, logistics, engineering, and management experience. Trade examples in the Branch include Heavy Construction Equipment Operator, Field Scientist (Geology), Combat Ecologist, Sapper, Diver, and CBR Specialist.
