HistoryThe 72nd Engineer Regiment was formed when the Territorial Army was re-organized in the 1960s. It was created from the 50th (Northumbrian) Infantry Division's engineer regiment and some other separate squadrons. Its first and only headquarters were at Gateshead. From 1967 - 1992 it was assigned to the 29th Engineer Brigade.[1] Both 103 and 188 Squadrons were assigned to the "Harrier Support Group" from 1972 - 1982. In 1999 the regiment was disbanded but one squadron remained 72 (Tyne Electrical Engineers) Air Support Field Squadron which was a reserve air support squadron within the 71st Engineer Regiment. In 2006 the regiment was reformed and 72 Squadron became the new headquarters squadron.[2] Under Army 2020 the regiment will disband but the squadrons will be reassigned to other regiments.[3][4] Structure{{Location map+|England|width=300|float=right|caption=72 Engineer Locations:Field Squadron|places={{Location map~|England |label = 103 Squadron |lat_deg = 54.991085 |lon_deg = -1.5670102999999926 |mark = Pink pog.svg }}{{Location map~|England |label = 106 Squadron |lat_deg = 53.3256784 |lon_deg = -1.4793660000000273 |mark = Pink pog.svg }}{{Location map~|England |label = 299 Squadron |lat_deg = 53.7456709 |lon_deg = -0.3367412999999715 |mark = Pink pog.svg }}}} The regiment's structure changed a few times as it was disbanded than re-raised.
