A momentous day for the Regt. Today we saw 71 soldiers make their first step in becoming leaders in the British Army. This is the start of an amazing journey and one which we will be supporting you on, all the way. Ubique.

For those who’ve served in Afghanistan and are struggling to process what is happening there: it’s important to realise that what’s playing out now isn’t your fault. Vet or serving, if you feel helpless, heartbroken and need help, ask for it. 1/2

Another cracking week with all the sqns out of camp doing some really worthwhile (and fun) training.

It takes endurance and good training to operate in cold weather. 🥶

@22EngrRegt on Op Cabrit 🇪🇪 move to a frozen lake to complete ice breaker drills, giving them safe exposure to the initial symptoms of hyperthermia. #AlwaysReady in case they ever fall through the ice.

@OC_5AES was also out in temperatures approaching -30 degrees Celsius; a great chance for @Kaitsevagi and @NATO eFP Battlegroup Engineers to swap expertise. Learning from each other and building on our proven ability to fight together. #WeAreNATO @22EngrRegt

[5 Armd Engr Sqn @OC_5AES]

@OC_5AES As the temperature plummeted below zero, the Squadron conducted a survival and a tactical phase on the Cold Weather Operator Course; building and living in shelters using only the natural environment. 🥶❄ #ArmouredSappers #nilDesperandum #LiveMoveFight
