Then Major Edward Brecht (Para) finished in 2nd place in a class of over 1000 students, and receives the Eisenhower Award – presented to the best overall International Military Student (the 3rd year in a row a UK Student has won it). He will progress to @us_sams next term.

[British Army Staff USA @BritishArmyUSA]

Also at @us_sams Major Sam Patterson (RLC) finished comfortably in the top third of the course – itself an outstanding result for the US Army’s premier graduate-level education programme for Operational Art.  He was also successful in getting published in ‘Military Review’.

Incredible @BritishArmy results from @USACGSC - at @us_sams Major Chris Adams (RE) (who came third on the CGSOC last year) finished within the top 3% of the course (third again) and was selected as a Superior Graduate.  He was also nominated for the Iron Pen award. 🧵 #sidebyside

@Nationals MLB baseball players THOUGHT they knew what a ‘jumper’ was, clearly…..they didn’t!
Check out their knowledge of British slang - and perhaps test yours!

It’s been a great week at #LANPAC @USARPAC. @USArmy somewhat underappreciated in IP theatre. Great closeout session from CG @armyfutures. @ArmyCGS looking to do more in the region with @BritishArmy. @Jack_Watling @LWC_UK #sidebyside

“Training is the single most important thing an Army can do with the time it can control," General Poppas of @USArmy told British soldiers and officers.

He added: "We’ve got a lot of friends in the region... and we’ve got very, very close links with Commonwealth states here, so the region matters enormously to us historically, emotionally.
"This part of the world is critical to the future of the global stability."

Hugely impactful meeting yesterday between @ArmyCGS @ArmyChiefStaff and @ChiefAusArmy along with @USARPAC_CG. So much common ground, in #IndoPacific but also in #EuroAtlantic - and a reminder not to undervalue your army. @BritishArmy @USArmy @AustralianArmy #AUKUS #sidebyside

Huge shout out to @BritishArmy Cadets 🇬🇧 who won Best International Team at the Annual Military Skills Competition @WestPoint_USMA 🇺🇸

After months of dedicated training, they beat 14 other international teams to bring home the award that's actually a hat!

[British Embassy Washington @UKinUSA]

The world is a healthier, happier, safer, more prosperous place when the United Kingdom and the United States work closely together, and it’s in our mutual interest to do so.

Even as our attentions turn to King Charles III's historic day, we remember our Ukrainian friends.
It's an honour, a privilege and our duty, to support you - always.

After the moving moment soldiers from @The_SCOTS laid their Revolutionary War descendant to rest in SC, @USArmy Brigadier General Jason Kelly thanks them and @BritishArmyUSA staff for honouring the man who two centuries ago would have been his enemy.

[UK Defence Staff in US @UKdefUS]

More than 2 centuries ago, a group of young, frightened soldiers looked each other in the eye across the Revolutionary War battlefield of Camden, South Carolina.
Many died. Almost all had been ‘missing in action’ for 242 years.
But the remains of 14 have now been discovered….

[British Army Staff USA @BritishArmyUSA]

Amazing day for the AMA in Camden over the weekend. Around 3,000 present to witness 2 @The_SCOTS carry the body of a fallen British soldier from the Revolutionary War. He was interred with full honours, with several US soldiers. Adversaries on the battlefield, buried #sidebyside

[British Army 🇬🇧 @BritishArmy]

An innovative project is underway to deliver blood and plasma to injured soldiers on the battlefield.

The remains of 14 soldiers were uncovered at the Camden Battlefield - and one of them has links to the Fraser’s Highlanders, which later morphed into the Royal Regiment of Scotland.
