  Royal Electrical and Mechanical Engineers - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Corps of Royal Electrical and Mechanical Engineers (REME; usually pronounced phonetically as "Reemee") is a corps of the British Army that has responsibility for the maintenance of all electrical and mechanical equipment.
In Phase I, which was implemented immediately, REME was formed on the existing framework of the RAOC Engineering Branch, strengthened by the transfer of certain technical units and tradesmen from the RE and RASC.
With minor exceptions only, REME is now responsible for the examination, modification, repair and recovery of all mechanical, electronic, electrical and optical equipment of the Army beyond the capacity of unit non-technical personnel.

 New Mexico UFO Crash Encounter In 1945
Although they were warned by their father to stay away from the area, Jose, sometimes with Reme, and sharing a pair of binoculars, watched from hiding as the military graded a road and soldiers prepared for the flatbed's arrival.
