42 Commando Remembrance Day 2025 Today we remembered all that gave the ultimate sacrifice in serving their country and the ranks that we have lost from 42 Cdo. "When you go home, tell them of us and say, for your tomorrow, we gave our today." ⚔️

#fridayfeeling Climbing out of the week and into the weekend. Boarding ladder climb used for high access assaults.

Throwback Thursday. Heavy weapons training in this year’s summer heat. A 7.62mm round is caught just leaving the barrel. The browning .5 and the general purpose machine gun are still part of the units arsenal. Delivering reliable fire power to all environments.
