Small Arms School Corps
Advisors and Instructors
The Small Arms School Corps (SASC) advise and instruct Infantry weapon trainers. They are responsible for maintaining the proficiency in the use of small arms, support weapons and range management.
SASC advisors and instructors are strategically positioned throughout the British Army to enhance operational training, and ensure marksmanship standards are met.
The SASC is manned entirely from volunteers who transfer into the SASC from All Arms and Services, although primarily from the Infantry.
