As you head off for Christmas spare a thought for the 3,000 soldiers on Ops, those on duty here and their families who will miss them this year. Thank you for your service and have a Happy Christmas.
Congratulations to @PreetChandi10 on the completion of her 700-mile unsupported trek to the South Pole. An inspirational example of the grit and determination of our soldiers. Well Done! @BritishArmy
Three priorities: Ready, resilient and prepared for whatever comes - a message from the Standing Joint Headquarters, the Operational Command Headquarters for the military response to Covid19. #BeTheBest@BritishArmy#SJC
On behalf of the British Army, I offer a message of our most loyal greetings to Their Majesties The King and The Queen on the occasion of Their Coronation. (1/5)
UK - Pakistan military cooperation is enduring. It was a pleasure to welcome Pakistan’s Chief of the Army Staff General Asim to Horse Guards Parade earlier today. We look forward to productive discussions at the UK-Pakistan Regional Stabilisation Conference this week.
On behalf of the @BritishArmy, CGS presented Her Majesty a small token of gratitude and appreciation to celebrate Her Majesty's Platinum Jubilee. This walking stick fitted the bill: something useful, relevant and always to hand, representing our loyal support.
First in 2001. Last out 2021. They don’t expect thanks but they deserve it. He who saves a life saves the world entire. 15063. @BritishArmy@16AirAssltBde
Empty in-trays for the first time in 4 years. Wonderful to have belonged to a fantastic organisation and served alongside incredible people. Everything I signed up for 40 years ago and a lifetime of memories. Good luck to Patrick Sanders and his new team. Great times. Thank you.
11 years ago we were all on operations together in Afghanistan. Today these men command the three regular parachute battalions & they jumped into Arnhem this morning to commemorate the 75th anniversary of the battle that still defines the fighting spirit of our paratroopers.
I'm delighted that Capt Tom Moore has agreed to be Honorary Colonel of AFC Harrogate where our youngest soldiers are trained & educated. He is an inspiration & role-model to generations and this deserved promotion is applauded across all ranks. Happy 100th Birthday Colonel Tom!
