The RLC was formed from the Royal Corps of Transport, Royal Army Ordnance Corps, Royal Pioneer Corps, Army Catering Corps and the Postal and Courier Section of the Royal Engineers. Although The RLC dates from 1993, it has a rich heritage dating back to the thirteenth century.

 

The RLC Museum amalgamated the Forming Corps' collections to form a unique resource: there is no civilian or other Service equivalent covering logistics as a whole anywhere else in the world. It has a critical role to play in restoring, preserving, recording, interpreting and displaying its collection and tracing the rich history of The RLC, its forming corps and military logistics in general.
