Getting hands on with @3RSMERegt VBS whilst on REFSC. A unique way to learn about Armoured Recce without the risk of throwing a track #proudsappers #followthesapper

5 weeks ago 46 individuals started @24CdoRE beat up. Today have 28 passed the PCPA and earned their place at CTC for the next 13 weeks. Well done and good luck to them all.

[Sapper_JNCO @SapperJ]

This morning sees the Beat up undertake their Pre Commando Physical Assessment (PCPA) which if they pass will see they move to CTC Lympstone and one step closer to earning the coveted Green Beret.

Yesterday we demolished a 30m high chimney in Skrunda, Latvia. Have a look at the video to see how we did it. Fred Dibnah (kids, ask you parents) would have been proud.
