Tomorrow, on Remembrance Sunday, members of the British High Commission, UNFICYP Mission, invited dignitaries and representatives from across the island will lay wreaths at Wayne’s Keep Cemetery to remember all of those who have died as a result of war. ‌We will remember them.‌‌

Today, at the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month we, alongside our colleagues and with thoughts of home, observed the Two Minute Silence in remembrance of the men and women who have given their lives in service of our country @Proud_Sappers @PoppyLegion @BFBSSport

@UNFCCC @12_FS_Engr

This global movement seeks to inspire others to improve their behaviours and leave a better personal sustainability and conservation legacy. In order to maintain the integrity of the buffer zone, our service personnel conduct these litter picks routinely as part of their patrols.

Today, @71_Engr_Regt and the Op TOSCA 39 taskforce #jointhecharge to a more sustainable future by clearing the rubbish in and around the United Nations Buffer Zone in Cyprus @1UKDivision @BFBSRadioHQ @BFBSCyprus @8EngrBde @Proud_Sappers @soldiermagazine

Notably, the Op TOSCA 39 taskforce is comprised of Reserve and Regular personnel from 31 units across the UK.

With the majority of our force being volunteers, we also face the unique challenge of transitioning from civilian lives into a full time, operational deployment. From today, we are on point. We have a lot to do, and we will get on with it swiftly”.
