Our 1st Battalion recently returned from overseas training that saw them conducting Live Fire Tactical Training (LFTT) in arduous terrain and with a level of realism, scale, and resourcing that tested even the soldiers of our Yorkshire Infantry. The 1st Battalion was also remaining a step ahead of itself to make sure that the ranges that were being run were safe, challenging, and resourced appropriately.

Here you can see them preparing to launch an attack at dusk to exploit the opportunities that this time-of-day can offer and the weaknesses of our possible adversaries. Then you can see a section commander going through his Quick Battle Orders prior to the assault.
