Congratulatory Message of the Minister of Defence on the Day of Engineering Branch




I extend to all members of the engineering branch my best wishes as they celebrate 6th November – the Day of the branch.
 
Continuing the tradition of practitioners in the engineering branch, when the 1864 Law amending the Law on organising the Armed Forces was passed in the Principality of Serbia, by which the pontoniers and pioneers were separated from artillery and a new branch of engineers was formed, more than a century and a half, thanks to professionalism, expertise and accountability, you managed to functionally fulfil all obligations, and by accomplishing the assigned tasks, you have contributed to building and improving the operational capabilities of the Serbian Armed Forces.
 
By providing day-to-day assistance to citizens of Serbia, when necessary, you show how much the Serbian Armed Forces is doing for the benefit of its people.
 
Convinced that in the period to come you will be able to raise the competence of your elements to an even higher level, which will contribute to the overall development of the Army, I congratulate you on the holiday.
