Introduction 


RCEME Trades 1944-2020, A Reference Guide summarizes the trades that were part of 
RCEME when the Corps was formed in 1944, and follows the development, 
amalgamations, changes, and history from that time to the four trades that are part of 
RCEME today. During the research for that document, many trades specifications and 
standards were found in the Library and Archives Canada (LAC) and other 
repositories. These were used to prepare a thumbnail history of each trade in the main 
reference, but space precluded the inclusion of the complete trade specification and/ 
or standard. 


This *Trades Specifications" series supports the main document and includes the 
original trade specifications and references as they were found at the LAC and 
elsewhere. This is a source document for researchers. In general, the raw photographs 
of the LAC file pages have been converted to a searchable .pdf file. No attempt has 
been made to reformat the contents of the original files. 


Guide to the Series 


Because of the size of some of the files, the trades have been separated into several 
volumes, each containing the specifications for a group of trades. The series consists 
of: 


Volume 1 - Aircraft Trades 

Volume 2 - Armourer, Armament, and Weapons Technician Trades 
Volume 3 - Body and Tire Repair Trades 

Volume 4 - Driver and Driver Mechanic Trades 

Volume 5 - Electrical Trades 

Volume 6 - Instructor Trades 

Volume 7 - Instrument Trades 

Volume 8 - Metals, Machinist, and Welding Trades 
Volume 9 - Radar and Fire Control System (1950s) Trades 
Volume 10 - Radio and Telecommunication Trades 
Volume 11 - Recovery Mechanic Trades 

Volume 12 - Vehicle Repair Trades 

Volume 13 - Other Trades 

Volume 14 - Trade Reviews 

Volume 15 - Post-Unification Trades 


Volume 16 - RCEME Trades in 2020 


Source Documents 


This is a supporting reference for RCEME Trades 1944-2020, A Reference Guide. The 
list of sources for the main document is reproduced below. Where possible, the source 
document (or a relevant excerpt) has been scanned and placed on the RCEME 
Historical Database. Sometimes, a copy may be on the Internet Archive. One location 
of the primary document is included - there may be other copies in existence. 


Primary sources include: 


Instructions Regarding Trades Tests and Tradesmen's Rates of Pay, Canadian 
Army (Overseas), 1943. A copy is available in the Canadian War Museum under the 
call reference UB 337 I57 CWM Ref Tech 1943. Short reference in this document: 
[Trades 1943]. This document does not relate trades to a specific Corps. The 
relationship to RCOC(E) and later RCEME is inferred. 


Instructions Regarding Trades Tests and Trades Testing, Canadian Army, 1944. 
Queens Printer, 1944. A copy is available in the Canadian War Museum under the 
call reference UB 337 C2 I5 CWM Ref Tech 1944. Short reference in this document: 
[Trades 1944]. This reference had two major amendments: AL 1 dated 1 January 
1945, and AL 2 (not dated), both included in the reference. This reference relates to 
the Canadian Army as a whole, and not just the Canadian Army Overseas. The 
assignment of trades to Corps includes RCEME, which is evidence that it was updated 
after the formation of CEME/RCEME. 


Canadian Army Routine Order (CARO) No. 4230 dated 15 March 1944. The 
Annexes to this CARO (and subsequent CAROs that amended CARO 4230) detailed 
the units and trades that were to be transferred to the new Corps of RCEME. The 
Canadian War Museum has a set of CARO. 


Canadian Army Routine Order No. 6579 dated 20 May 1946. This was the first 
major postwar regrouping of Army trades and classification of tradesmen. A copy is 
available in the Canadian War Museum under the call reference Ref Tech Folio UB 505 
C2 A7. Short reference in this document: [CARO 6579 (1946)]. 


Canadian Army Order No. 269-1 dated 8 April 1947. This order amplified and 
clarified[CARO 6579 (1946)] and is part of the new Canadian Army Orders series that 
replaced the Canadian Army Routine Orders in 1947. A copy is available in the 
Canadian War Museum under the call reference Ref Tech UB 507 A6 S8. It also 
announced that a new publication “Canadian Army Trades Tests 1946” would be 
issued, (which has not been found). Short reference in this document: [CAO 269-1 
(1947)]. 


Canadian Army Order No. 269-1 dated 22 August 1949. Trades Designations, 
Groupings of Trades, Responsibility for Training and Corps Affiliation. This 
replaced and updated [CAO 269-1 (1947)]. It also assigned trades to specific Corps. A 
copy is available in the Canadian War Museum under the call reference Ref Tech UB 
507 A6 S8. Short reference in this document: [CAO 269-1 (1949)]. This reference was 
amended in CAO 269-1 dated 6 February 1950, which is included as part of this 
source. 


Canadian Army Order No. 269-1 dated 27 November 1950. Trades Designations, 
Groupings of Trades, Responsibility for Training and Corps Affiliation. This 
replaced and updated [CAO 269-1 (1949)|. A copy is available in the Canadian War 


Museum under the call reference Ref Tech UB 507 A6 S8. Short reference in this 
document: [CAO 269-1 (1950)]. 


Canadian Army Order No. 269-1 dated 5 May 1952. Trades Designations, 
Groupings of Trades, Responsibility for Training and Corps Affiliation. This 
replaced and updated [CAO 269-1 (1950)|. A copy is available in the Canadian War 
Museum under the call reference Ref Tech UB 507 A6 S8. Short reference in this 
document: [CAO 269-1 (1952)]. 


There would appear to have been an update to CAO 269-1 in 1954, but the CWM does 
not have a copy of that CAO - DHH might. 


Canadian Army Manual of Trades and Specialties. This detailed the Canadian Army 
trade standards and specifications and replaced the Canadian Army Trades Tests 
series. The manual seems to have come into effect by CAO 225-52 dated 18 November 
1957. There is apparently no CAO 269-1 after that date. The RCEME trades extracted 
from this document are dated in the late 1950s and early 1960s. A copy is available in 
the Canadian War Museum under the call reference Ref Tech UB 337 C2 C3 n.d. This 
reference is not complete. A complete version may exist at DHH (apparently not). Short 
reference in this document: [CAMTS]. 


Files in the Library and Archives, Canada (LAC). There are files in the LAC on many 
of the RCEME trades in the 1950s and early 1960s. These files have been reviewed 
and the specific file reference is contained in Annex A for the specific trade in 
question. See also the Army Trades Committee paragraph below. Short reference in 
this document: [LAC - file reference]. 


A specific file at the LAC is RG24-C-1-a, Volume 2165, File HQS-54-27-35-320, Trades 
Training & Tests - RCEME - Policy 1944-1947. It is not complete, but provides 
documentary evidence of the DEME position on the creation and elimination of some 
trades. Where other official confirmation has not been found (e.g. in the Army Trades 
Committee files), this file has been accepted as an authority. Short reference in this 
document: [LAC - Policy - Training of Tradesmen, RCEME] 


Army Trades Committee and Army Trades Committee Sub-committee files at the 
LAC. A specific series of files at the LAC are the minutes of the Army Trades 
Committee and Army Trades Committee Sub-committee from about 1950 to 19695. 
They are best located by using the LAC search engine. The minutes give the approval 
(and date) for trade actions, and are often accompanied by supporting documentation 
such as trades specifications. Short reference in this document: [LAC - ATC and LAC - 
ATCSC]. The Directorate of History and Heritage also has a copy of some of these files. 
Between DHH and the LAC, there should be a complete set. 


Files in the RCEME Archives. The RCEME archives, currently located at the RCEME 
School, have a few trades files. Most date from the early 1960s. There is a separate list 
ing of all the files in the RCEME archives. Short reference in this document: [RCEME 
Archives]. 


Bennett, Thomas J. Skill at Arms, A History of Canadian Army Trades including 
their Badges and Parachute Wings. Bunker to Bunker Books, Calgary, AB, 2005. 
The book appears to be out of print. A copy is in the Canadian War Museum Library 
under the call number UC 535 C3 B458 2005. Short reference in this document: [Skill 
at Arms]. It is an outstanding reference work, and was used heavily in the creation of 
the first draft of this document. However, unfortunately it does not link to primary 


sources, and has been replaced as a source document as primary sources become 
available. That said, few discrepancies have been found, and I have full confidence in 
this book as a source. It was my primary reference for relating the badges worn by the 
trades. 


RCEME Historical Database. Documents of general and specific interest to RCEME 
have been placed on a Google drive, part of which is shared with the public. All files in 
the public section of the database can be downloaded. The database can be accessed 
through the history and heritage tab on the Corps of RCEME website. Supporting 
documentation is in the RCEME Complete Digital Archives on the same Google Drive. 
The supporting documentation (such as the raw document scans) is not available to 
the general public, but can be requested from the RCEME Historian if required. Short 
reference in this document: [RCEME Historical Database). 


RCEME Trades Source Documents at the LAC (Postwar and Pre-Unification) 


The following Policy of Training and Qualifications files have been located at the LAC. 
All files have been reviewed and relevant details, including trades specifications, have 
been photographed and a pdf file of the information has been created and placed on 
the RCEME Historical Database. In general, the information contained in the files is 
limited to a copy of the draft trades standard. It is a disappointing source, but 
provides an index to the trades that were in existence.
