Our last hidden @BritishArmy sniper! Can you find them? Remember that military training can happen without obvious signs of activity, so always follow local access guidance. #RespectTheRange

Blended perfectly into their environment is a @britisharmy sniper. We’re giving you 15s to find them. Did you manage it? Being aware of what’s around you on military land is key to staying safe. Live training can’t always be seen or heard #RespectTheRange @DefenceHQ @BritishArmy
