TSC / TDK TECHNICAL SERVICE CORPS BADGE.

The Technical Service Corps (TSC), Tegniese Dienskorps is an exception on the general rule that South African corps are derived from British parents. Although they share similar insignia, the Royal Electrical and Mechanical Engineers (REME) were only established in 1942. The TSC, by contrast, had been established in its current form in 1939. 

Mission: To keep operationally fit equipment in the hands of the troops through first, second and third line support. TSC artificers examine, modify, repair and recover all vehicles and other mechanical, electrical and electronic equipment of the Army beyond the capacity of unit non-technical personnel. 

Corps colours: Red, yellow, blue
Beret colour: Black
Collar badge: Horse superimposed on lightning bolt
 
Brief history in SA: The provision of technical services remained largely ad hoc in SA until the establishment of the Union Defence Force on April 1, 1913, which included the SA Service Corps, the SA Ordnance Corps and the SA Administrative, Pay and Clerical Corps. These were disbanded in the early days of World War Two and out of the ashes, on November 10, 1939, arose a new "T" Services Corps as well as a "Q" Services Corps. In July 1950 the Corps was renamed the Technical Service corps.

   Structure
All TSC units are assigned to the SA Army Support Formation.
 
The corps is structured as follows:

Technical Service School, Centurion, Tshwane
30 Field Workshop, Cape Town
31 Field Workshop, Johannesburg
37 Field Workshop, Pretoria
71 Field Workshop, Klerksdorp
101 Field Workshop, Lohatlha
102 Field Workshop, Potchefstroom

 
Condition: VERY Good.
