    Hi,

    Welcome to the forum.

    IMHO that abbreviation is likely for 3rd Training Battalion Royal Engineers. It would be the unit where a new recruit (after attending Primary Training and being selected for RE) would commence specialised Training.

    If you search internet there are a number of references to variously numbered RE Training Battalions.

    Have you got his full service record from MOD Glasgow?
