Whilst in #Cyprus on #OpTosca, Padre Hobson met with RAF chaplain Imam Omar. Together they visited a Greek Orthodox Church and a Mosque which co-exist in the village of Deneia; one of only four villages in the UN Buffer Zone. Time was also spent exploring each other’s faiths.

🗣️Lt Col Bob McKay, CO 4PARA: “I am immensely proud of how quickly the formation has come together and started to focus on the mission. Our Army Reservists have made the decision to put their civilian careers on hold, so they can develop as soldiers and wear the blue beret.”

This summer the reservists of 4th Bn @TheParachuteReg are deploying on #OpTOSCA, the UK's contribution to UN🇺🇳 #peacekeeping in Cyprus. Training for the 6-month tour began with troops confirming their basic soldiering skills, as the foundations to build mission-specific skills.
