Battles are won from the ground up.
A young officer races to finish his orders early (left) to give his platoon and NCOs maximum time for their own preparation (right).
Striving for excellence and setting good habits early! Professionalism at every level.

Armour on the move during #ExJointEndeavour2020. The exercise is more than an airborne insertion, it tests the manner in which land, amphibious and air troops all work together to make a #formidable force that is #ready for short notice deployment. #AlwaysFirst

Largest parachute drop for decades as 250 paratroopers deploy in to Ukraine ahead of Exercise Joint Endeavour. Training alongside their Ukrainian counterparts, aiming to test the ability of the UK to move rapidly to support our allies, should the need arise.
