The support received by the #UK Chinooks in #Barkhane after one of our helicopters had an accident in #Douentza and needed transport back to #Gao is a great testament to the important partnership between our forces, a partnership I am deeply grateful for. #Mali #A4P #MINUSMA

Amidst the huge crisis our nation faces, perhaps also spare a thought/prayer for Lance Corporal Brodie Gillon's family as her body is repatriated today. Brodie, 26, a Combat Medical Technician & volunteer reservist represents the best of our nation.
RIP Warrior @ArmyMedServices

[James Heappey @JSHeappey]

Great to see all this coverage of the preparations underway in Defence. Not much has been asked for yet & perhaps our armed forces will hardly be needed at all. But if we are needed, our fantastic people are trained and ready to go. It’s what they do.

Despite the difficult conditions we all face at the moment, the Army family asks you to pause with us to remember 26-year-old Lance Corporal Brodie Gillon as she returns home today. LCpl Gillon was killed last week at Camp Taji in Iraq. https://t.co/ZcoyCoOYvA
