        The powers that be have withdrawn from both competitions, Arduous Serpent has now been replaced by the AMS shoot.

          "Let us be clear about three facts. First, all battles and all wars are won in the end by the infantryman. Secondly, the infantryman always bears the brunt. His casualties are heavier, he suffers greater extremes of discomfort and fatigue than the other arms. Thirdly, the art of the infantryman is less stereotyped and far harder to acquire in modern war than that of any other arm." ------- Field Marshall Wavell, April 1945.

              Yes the team was made up of the winners of this years Recce Concentration plus a number of others from the same unit. They got a silver medal what ever that equals too.
              RoyalGreenJacket your unit seems to have given them a hard time in Wales, kicking them out of some of the facilities as soon as the seen they were Irish.

                Well done on the Silver Medal lads!

                I'd be very disappointed to hear that there was any mistreatment of the DF being hosted by the BA. Is that a real message?

                  • Sorry to hear that Rhodes.

                    Did it have any impact on the lads' performance on the patrol? I hope it didn't taint any future endeavours with the Cambrian Patrol, this seems like a good thing going forward.

                      It didn't effect them on the actual two day exercise but they were there for a week.

                        • Silver is a decent result and well done on that - that's what we achieved on ours but we lost a bloke (no duff casualty).

                          as for the alleged mistreatment - none of us can comment until we know the details.

                          was 1RIFLES the hosting unit for ONH?

                              it certainly is, for a first time effort with new weapons, new comms, new terrain and probably some different drills - and not to mention some very high expectations in the home units - its very, very good.
