What an incredible team effort! ๐ช๐ด Over the past two weeks, the hardworking chefs of 1MERC BG have been in action during EXERCISE IRON CYCLONE, feeding troops undergoing PDT at Copehill Down Village. Battling strong winds, freezing temperatures, and wet conditions, they still managed to deliver meals that lifted spirits and kept morale high. ๐๐
From 1Mercians to 1RW, KRH, 4RLC, 2MED, 4REME, and 26RE, every chef brought their A-game, earning well-deserved compliments from all ranks. ๐ A true testament to their resilience and dedication!
To wrap up 2024, the chefs at Picton Barracks celebrated with a festive Christmas Lunch ๐, a delicious spread, and Secret Santa fun ๐ ๐พ๐. However, itโs also time to bid farewell to two valued team members: Cpl Lucas (posted to QDG) and Pte Boadi (transferred to RAMC).
The chefs from 3DSR, HCR & 1Mercians wish them both the very best for the future. ๐ซก๐
Hereโs to teamwork, resilience, and ending the year on a high note! ๐ซ #Teamwork #Resilience #MoraleBoosters #MilitaryChefs #EndOfYear

๐๏ธ Cpl Prince from The Queenโs Royal Hussars Shines on Ex HIGHLAND HUSSARS! ๐ฝ๏ธ
Cpl Prince, from our Catering Department, had an incredible week on Island Ark during Ex HIGHLAND HUSSARS. Not only did he feed 20 officers, but he also had the thrilling experience of stalking โ and bagged his very first stag! ๐ฆ
That wasnโt allโฆ he took his culinary skills to the next level by preparing delicious meals using game meats like partridge, pheasant, venison, and pigeon, along with locally-sourced vegetables and fruit. ๐ฟ๐
Cpl Prince even showcased his expert butchery skills, breaking down whole stags and demonstrating the exceptional capabilities of military chefs in action.
Throughout the week, he planned and prepared his own menus, receiving rave reviews from VVIP guests and officers โ feedback that was nothing short of exceptional! ๐จโ๐ณโจ
A true credit to his trade and the Regiment! ๐ช #WeAreTheChefs #WeSustain #WeAreTheRLC @ChurchillsOwn
