Best of wishes for the future @Nails_ZeroAlpha. You have been a brilliant CO and it has been a pleasure working with you and @Army2MERCIAN. Best of luck to CO Grover, we are looking forward to working with you.
End of mission. The privilege of my professional career to command @Army2MERCIAN. Laughter, grit, family, traditions and above all pride. I have loved every minute. Good luck Rich Grover - you have the best of teams and an exciting time ahead. #SFSH

The @BritishArmy really do think of everything. Do you wear spectacles? This can be a challenge when needed to work in a respirator mask. This clever mask has the spectacles built inside!

We discovered a prayer book today in the stores given to L/Sgt #Baskeyfield VC in @lcncathedral upon his return from #Sicily. The 2nd South #Staffords were based in Woodhall Spa, #Lincolnshire before they departed for #Arnhem in 1944. @JasonPeach16 #airborne #glider #ww2
