We've been out in Estonia supporting @Kaitsevagi in Exercise #hedgehog25 (their annual readiness exercise) and recently worked with the @LANCS_REGT. The Chinook can lift a platoon of troops where it's needed by day and night in any weather. #StrongerTogether #WeAreNATO

Victory wasn’t won by soldiers alone. 🇬🇧

The King’s Regiment (Liverpool), now The Duke of Lancaster’s Regiment, fought bravely overseas, while families, workers & communities at home stood behind them with unbreakable spirit.

What a night!

1LANCS are the Army Major Unit Boxing Champions. Soldiering remains the priority, but a healthy Battalion always invests in team sports.....and wins!

Huge congratulations to the Boxers!
