@Tofrek @wiltshirepolice @swasFT Oi, it took 18 months to prepare and was a brilliant exercise! I'll not hear a bad word about it. Hannah, don't fret, if he says anything, again, we'll 'sort' him out!

The UK Ops team attended a really well delivered training event last night with @wiltshirepolice @swasFT @DWFRS and others. Two hours of intense trg that was great to observe.

Epic job for a Reservist in our UK Ops team added on SERVE.

'SO2 Resilience Plans' as a new Full Commitment FTRS post. If you are a grafter, self-directing, and keen to develop the team, this might be a real win for you.
Please can you help spread the word - we want the best.

I'm not sure if you have ever done this or seen this event, but it is one of the best things ever. Run by the Headquarters South West and a fantastic and enduring partnership of many agencies delivering a fantastic event. If you ever get a chance to go - go.

We capture content from behind the scenes to try to show just what makes this event so magical. Follow us on insta to see @armytentors

Our UK Ops team is looking for a Reservist Captain and a Major who might be up for joining a great team and one of the best, most interesting Res jobs. If they live in DCIoS area or the Channel Islands, that'd be great. @WessexYeomanry @6RIFLES_CO @165PortRegtRLC can you help?

[JRLO_Wessex_North @JrloNorth]

@kittags @Tofrek @swasFT @what3words @EmergencyLocate I think that hi vis poles was where we got to. It's the casulty that's in a ditch who's been seen by a CTSFO, who has had to move on and then 'lost' to yhd follow-up SWAST team.
In a terrible moment, someone suggested helium balloons on string...but it had been a long day!

[JRLO_Wessex_North @JrloNorth]

Any Reservists out there who want a great job? We have 2 that on SERVE - an SO3 and WO2 Resilience Support Team. The title does not do the jobs justice and I think if you want an interesting and rewarding job where you can deliver something meaningful, you'd be crazy not to look.

[JRLO_Wessex_North @JrloNorth]

@Tofrek Not a bloody chance in your case - not with those knees!

[JRLO_Wessex_North @JrloNorth]

Good day yesterday @DefBattleLab talking to the team about Multiagency Information Plans and @WiltsPrepared team and the ESRI project they are running. This may well answer all our questions!

[JRLO_Wessex_North @JrloNorth]

Happy Battle of Jersey Day. It took place on 6 Jan 1781 when the French landed on Jersey. After some dubious command decisions, everything was sorted out in 15 minutes by a classic bit of infantry work by the 95th of Foot under Major Peirson. Long live the Duke of Normandy.

[JRLO_Wessex_North @JrloNorth]

The weather may look crisp, but it is dangerous out there. Certainly don't ignore the flood signs - our Police and Fire and Rescue colleagues have enough on their hands!

You are probably not driving one of these tonight across the SW, so don't drive into flood water thinking you are - it could end badly....
