Neil Poynter, OC Royal Horse Engineers, returns to the Adjutants Lounge to continue his story, focusing on his experiences post-service and how military training shapes an individual's problem-solving skills. We also discuss the perception of the military by industry and individuals, the importance of language and recognizing transferable skills and putting these into 'Civvy-Speak'.

Special mentions to Bill Slim, 507 STRC, 32 Armd Engr Regt and geologists.
