Dates: 1960 - 1965

On May 1st 1960, 40 Coy RASC was designated 40 (Infantry Brigade Support Transport) Company. In 1962 a major re-organization of British Forces in Cyprus was started. As a result of this, 40 Coy at Dhekelia was disbanded. Cyprus was sad to see 40 Coy go, as it had over many years achieved a reputation for being "Second to None" in the sporting scene. Later 7 Coy RASC played a large part in rescue operations and reconstruction in Belize, Central America in the aftermath of a severe Hurricane.

In July 1965 The RASC as a Corps was reformed and became The Royal Corps of Transport, i.e. the RCT.
