The Logistic Regiment (Danish: Trænregimentet) is the military logistics regiment of the Royal Danish Army, responsible for army supply and emergency medical personnel. It is based in Aalborg.

History

Regimental origins can be traced back to 1865 when the first logistic companies were established in the Royal Artillery. It was not until 1880 that there was established a separate exercise department, which still was subject to artillery.

In 2015, the Danish Military Police was amalgamated with the Logistic Regiment.[2]

Structure

Today the Regiment has four logistics battalions,[2] plus a corps of Military police of full battalion strength:[3]
