British Army to Forestry Industry – Capt Si Smith's Story.
Close to reaching 22 years’ service with the British Army, I was sat in a conifer woodblock on Sennybridge Training Area (Mynydd Epynt), contemplating the next chapter of my life, when I looked across the valley to see forestry machinery harvesting a woodblock. After an hour of watching them, whilst noting that there were conifer wood blocks in every direction, I knew that this was an industry that I wanted to explore further.
