Hi Team. I am no longer @Comd51st now @MajGenGDeakin , now in Italy working for NATO, handed over the best command and team ever to Rob Lindsey. Please follow me from there if you wish, apologies for the gap, it took a while to set up... #ourpeople
The sound of #Edinburgh Castle’s One O’Clock Gun heralded a change of Command for 51st Infantry Brigade and HQ Scotland today. Brigadier Gary Deakin handed over command to Brigadier Robin Lindsay, as he leaves on promotion to Major General, to the #NATO HQ in #Naples.
Military and civilian personnel at Scotland’s largest military base came together today to celebrate the 50th anniversary of HMS Neptune, the shore establishment which evolved into HM Naval Base Clyde https://t.co/ImOlpHY2yq #HMNBClyde50@RNinScotland
An important message today and every day. There are always people to talk to and people who love you - no matter how dark the world can seem sometimes. Never forget that. Here, for example https://t.co/4f7UJmgVnv - or in the tweet below from @YoungScot https://t.co/clOxAz992u
A privilege to handover command of @Fighting51st & @ArmyScotland to Brigadier Robin Lindsey, the best of luck to you and one of the best teams I have had the honour to be part of #OurPeople
Managed to catch the tail end of #ChangingGuard today. Just can't get used to seeing kilts down the Mall, but a wonderful sight nonetheless @5SCOTS. Managed a snap of @CplCruachan_IV too.
Remembering 700 @RoyalNavy crew and US soldiers who perished when the #Tuscania and #Otranto sank near #Islay 100 years ago, and the bravery of locals who launched a rescue effort, cared for survivors and respectfully buried the dead. https://t.co/je7iYLyEiC
