π¨DRILL π¨
Drill is used to in-still instinctive residence to orders, build teamwork and develop discipline. It prepares our Cadets for duty by enhancing unit cohesion, teaching immediate responses to commands, alertness & attention to detailππ€π€

Great to have our Year 1 UPS students lead their respective sessions as part of their unit in February : Teamwork, Leadership and Communication in the UPS.

What a sight this was back in November last year when HMS Prince of Wales returned home after 8 months!
Operation Highmast was the UK showing it can run a full carrier strike group anywhere in the world.
