Giving care where others cannot go. Sqn Ldr Lottie Phillips-Girling is on duty in Afghanistan. Covid or not, military operations continue across the world. She said “it is a great privilege to be the last RAF nurse in Afghanistan, and I shall be here til the last plane leaves.”

RAF Nurse, Flt Lt Sonia Vannah, recently graduated from the Defence drone pilot course, enabling her to speedily seek out missing and wounded personnel - helping us to give care where others cannot go. Leading the way for the next generation of Flying Nightingales, #alwaysready

Major Max Marsden RAMC has won the American College of Surgeons’ Committee on Trauma’s 44th Annual Resident’s Research Prize for ‘best clinical research paper’ for his work Trauma Laparotomy in the UK. It is a wonderful achievement for a non-US based surgeon to scoop this prize.

It's sometimes OK not to get it right first time. We know that soldiers learn more from their mistakes than their successes, it teaches them essential lessons and helps them grow. #FailLearnWin
