@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.
We have had a brilliant 2 weeks in WARCOP conducting different shoots as part of our Mission Specific Training, captured beautifully here is A Company whilst on their night Foxhound top cover shoot. #FieldFiring #ArmyConfidence #ArmyStrong #WeAreInfantry @The_Black_Rats

Thank you to @challengecoinuk for producing these for the team. And of course @BAESystemsLand for their enduring support.

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
Danas slavimo 75. godišnjicu Dana pobede u Evropi #VEDay75
I danas mnogo država sarađuje u borbi protiv zajedničkog izazova #covid19
Ova donacija @DefenceHQ @mo_i_vs 🇷🇸 je mali znak solidarnosti...
