@1UKDivision SASC are currently deployed on a Short Term Training Training to Gambia.
Preparing Host Nation Forces is an essential part of Defence Engagement, and no more so than to these Gambian Forces deploying on UN Operations.

Good morning.
Start your week with one of our Snipers.
The Platoon has been honing their skills recently and casting their eye over possible additions. Only a few can gain entry into the exclusive club.

Great to see. Live Firing Tactical Training is only restricted by the experience and ingenuity of the planners. A perfect example here of LFTT being used effectively to prepare for Mission Specific Training.
General Purpose Machine Gun Thursday!
One of boys sent me this, they love their job!
The enemy is definitely not popping their head up during this!

Blending physical and simulation training.
Our D (Dragon) Company Mortar Fire Controllers sent Fire Missions from a simulator to the Mortar Line who has set up outside testing their response times.

Military planners are supporting the Warwickshire Council ‘shielding hub’ in Leamington Spa. Lt Chris Haydock from 9 Regt @ArmyAirCorps is overseeing logistical and planning operations, ensuring 1,200 boxes of essential items each week, reach people who can’t leave their homes.
Today is #Appeldu18juin - @UKDefenceFrance@FRDefence_UK - always great to photograph the French and Brits together - we took this shot in Canjuers - Brits with FR rifles, don't see that too often!
Thank you to @challengecoinuk for producing these for the team. And of course @BAESystemsLand for their enduring support.
These will hopefully be making their way to compete in the Brunei Skill at Arms Meet later in the year (🤞🏻)
In 1941 a small country defied evil and entered the war on Britain’s side - suffering almost the combined total of UK, US and French casualties of WW2. On #VEDay75 we are proud to support them in their fight against COVID-19. Shoulder to shoulder. @DefenceHQ@mo_i_vs@UKaid
@11XCdtShooting @SASC_1853@SASC_CorpsSM Not much other than complying with government advice and only travelling to work if essential and staying at home. All shooting is on hold, unless you have dry fire accessories like the DCCT.
