Professional Excellence is the epitome of success for military professionals. This essay explores the attainment of professional excellence by the Army Engineer who ensures that our Army’s equipment is safe, reliable, maintainable and operational. The Army Engineer is the combat force multiplier that optimises the capital investment of weapon systems to enable mission success for our Army. The essay starts by outlining the challenges of the Army Engineer, who wears the hats of a soldier and trainer as well. The essay discusses how the Army Engineer can be moulded in the four tenets of individual excellence, technical and engineering excellence, soldiering excellence and leadership excellence to enable the Army Engineer to contribute as primus inter pares for the 3rd Generation SAF.
