Honouring 52 years of Service

The Royal Signals is celebrating a remarkable 52-year milestone for Richard Arundel, who joined the Army as a 16-year-old in 1974.

 

His distinguished career includes global deployments to Germany, Belgium, the Falkland Islands, and Northern Ireland, followed by two decades of vital service with the Army Commercial Radio Team.

 

Renowned for his quiet professionalism and deep expertise, Richard's outstanding dedication has supported high-profile operations and earned him the prestigious Master of Signals Commendation.

 

Congratulations Richard, and thank you for an incredible 52 years of service.
