  • The Reserve Land Forces Regulations
    The Reserve Land Forces Regulations ADR006053 Intentionally blank Reserve Land Forces Regulations AC 72030 RESERVE LAND FORCES REGULATIONS In accordance with the provision of section 11 of the Auxiliary Forces Act the Territorial and Army Volunteer Reserve (No 3) Order 1978 brought into being the Territorial and Army Volunteer Regulations 1978. The provisions of the Reserve Forces Act 1982 formally amended the title of the Territorial and Army Volunteer Reserve (TAVR) to the Territorial Army (TA) and the regulations were re-titled The Territorial Army Regulations 1978. The provision of the Defence Reform Act 2014 formally amended the title of the Territorial Army (TA) to the Army Reserve and the former Army Reserve to the Regular Reserve. These provisions therefore brought into being The Army Reserve Regulations 1978. The Army Board of the Defence Council, in exercise of the powers conferred upon them by section 4 of the Reserve Forces Act 1996 and all other powers enabling them on that behalf, brought into force The Regular Reserve Regulations 1997 and The Reserve Forces (Army) Regulations 1997. In accordance with the Army Reserve and Regular Reserve Order 2016, with effect from 1 December 2016, the above named regulations will be revoked and broadly replaced by these Regulations and the schedule thereto. Henceforth all reference to the Territorial and Army Volunteer Reserve (TAVR) and the Territorial Army (TA) are to be construed as reference to the Army Reserve. All reference to the old Army Reserve are to be construed as reference to the Regular Reserve. Army Reserve and the Regular Reserve are not to be abbreviated and should always be written in full.

  • Lesley Roberts UP794341 Thesis Final
    Life after Traumatic Injury: Narratives of Embodiment and Identity of United Kingdom ex-Service Personnel Lesley Allison Boas Roberts, BA, MA PhD Sociology The thesis is submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the award of the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy of the University of Portsmouth. Date: December 2019 Declaration Whilst registered as a candidate for the above degree, I have not been registered for any other research award. The results and conclusions embodied in this thesis are the work of the named candidate and have not been submitted for any other academic award. Word Count: 91,802 ii Abstract This PhD thesis explores the life stories of veterans who were medically discharged due to severe trauma. Building upon Arthur Frank’s (1995) ‘illness narratives’, the research aims to fill the gap about the individual, lived experiences of wounded service personnel in the United Kingdom Armed Forces. Through narrative inquiry with 12 participants (all male), this thesis covers a lengthy temporal dimension: from the point of injury to rehabilitation and beyond—to the hopes and fears that participants voiced for their futures. The thesis explores how poly-traumatic wounds and subsequent discharge impacts the life stories of injured service personnel through a multi- disciplinary lens inclusive of sociology, critical military studies, critical disability studies, psychology, and bio-medical studies. Investigating rehabilitation and medical discharge, participants clarify how continuity and change affects their transition into civilian society. It also highlights a ‘post-military’ versus ‘ex-military’ identity for participants, as the narratives reflect still being connected to their Armed Forces career.
