Morning. On air across #NorthernIreland and #Scotland on the #breakfast show. Covering for Jim on @BFBSScotland. At 0845 I'll be chatting to Major Davy Weir from the @nih_sqn to find out more about being a #Reservist and plans for the North Irish Horse this year. @CombatRecce

As Lt Cav we use the speed and cross country ability of our vehicles to put us in the right place at the right time.
In Mali, the terrain is varied and challenging. But the LRRG's vehicles made up of Jackals, Coyotes and Fox Hounds are making easy work of it all.

Love the pictures and alliteration! Specialised wheeled vehicles form a significant element of the platforms we crew within the Yeomanry and these highly manoeuvrable and capable platforms provide great utility across a range of theatres and tasks!

Hope everyone is well and keeping warm on this white sunday. Looking at the Fox, can’t help but feel the jackal needs a roof on a day like this!

Taking aim at the year ahead. Now that the Festive period is over and we get back to our fighting standard, members of the squadron look forward to this year’s training and opportunities! @CombatRecce @RFCANI @ArmedForcesNI @ArmdCavRDG @SCOTS_DG @Fighting51st @TheArmourCentre

Following the announcement of a new national lockdown, in-line with government direction we will continue to deliver the key outputs of Defence. Regular and Reserve Basic Training across all of our establishments will continue until otherwise directed.
This year the Sqn wanted to help spread some Christmas cheer and it was decided to help support @coolfm and @cashforkids Mission Christmas!
We would like to thank everyone who dropped off gifts for the appeal. QS.
