@tinymind @299ParaSqnRE of @AirborneSappers. Any connections through your Hull Troop who might be able to support this mission?

@Mark1_1984 @kingsbury_ollie @Mr_Andrew_Fox Think I remember reading this at the time! A desperate attempt to get the brilliant brains trust out ahead of the daily battle…

Air Maneouvre Operations in 2023. Written by yours truly in 2018 (just stumbled across it on One Drive). Didn't foresee the operation that required all the Allied Strat/TacAT would be Pitting and the mother of all NEOs @kingsbury_ollie @Mr_Andrew_Fox @sicarvel

@kingsbury_ollie @507stre Absolutely true Ollie.

@kingsbury_ollie @DefAcUK @HCSCShrivenham @UKACSC Racing ahead. Loads of time left so don’t rush too early Ollie!

@SidLawrenceRoma @BritishArmy @Proud_Sappers Outstanding. Thank you for giving so much to our Corps and Defence. Enjoy the next challenge.

The clock ticked and I timed out. I had the most incredible time in the @BritishArmy @Proud_Sappers full of challenge and alongside the very best of people. Thanks all, it was a blast and time well spent.

@BritishArmyUSA @BritishArmy @ArmyCGS @field_army @TickellChris @USArmy @ArmyChiefStaff Brilliant. Thank you Keith. It was a pleasure to work alongside you for 2.5 years of your 43. Enjoy the retirement!

What a privilege to speak at the retirement of Keith Laverty, and to present him with a token of appreciation of the @BritishArmy and of many other international armies. Bravo on 43 amazing years of service. @ArmyCGS @field_army @TickellChris @USArmy @ArmyChiefStaff #sidebyside

@RAnglians @7thRats Met some of these @RAnglians going through LHR just after Christmas. Polite and proficient despite the circumstances. The CSM smiled at the kids too! Thank you.

Over the Christmas period members of #ThePoachers were deployed to protect Critical National Infrastructure They conducted their task to the highest standard with professionalism and good humour They have earned the thanks of their Regiment and the Nation @7thRats #RoyalAnglian

3/3 And of course thank you to my amazing family for being right beside me throughout our crazy journey.

2/3 Thank you to the brilliant teammates who supported tirelessly, coached patiently and laughed heartily. I am more prepared for the next mission because of you all.

1/3 Our time in the USA has come to an end. The most incredible 30 months of professional challenge and opportunity with @USArmy, and lifelong family memories. It has been a privilege to work in HQDA to serve the soldiers, NCOs, officers, DA civilians and families.

@Usasoc_CSM @USArmySMA @USASOCNews @SecArmy @USArmy @ArmySgtMajor

I’m truly humbled and honored to be selected as the 17th Sergeant Major of the Army. @USArmySMA @USASOCNews @SecArmy @USArmy

@hughmainwaring @BritishArmyUSA @ArmyChiefStaff @DeptofDefense @ArmyCGS @BritishArmy You’re right Hugh. The US Army have a wonderful way of including and thanking the whole family for their service. It a family business in many ways.

@BritishArmyUSA @ArmyChiefStaff @DeptofDefense @ArmyCGS @BritishArmy Best bit about those photo is their daughter's face. A send off that she won't forget, and I dare say the making of her. Bravo UK/US inter-cooperation.

A fitting send-off by @ArmyChiefStaff to Col Si Carvel after an outstanding tour of duty in @DeptofDefense. And a Legion of Merit awarded - superb! Further evidence (though none was needed!) of the incredible relationship between our two armies. #sidebyside @ArmyCGS @BritishArmy

@bigstace9 @BritishArmyUSA @ArmyChiefStaff @DeptofDefense @ArmyCGS @BritishArmy Thank you Big Stace. It’s been a superb 30 months in 🇺🇸 but back to 🇬🇧 next.

We, the serving and retired, young and old, family and friends, have all benefited from you selfless service to the Corps. The culmination of a wonderful career too. 🙏🏻

That’s it, handing over this account today to #DickieHawkins. Firmly in place as @Proud_Sappers CorpsCol. It has been a great experience over the last 5 years; working with amazing people. Thank you. Best of luck to you all. #Matt @047matt.

@Mjogalvin1 @HeadGeog @EldonPrincipal @ottleyoconnor @_NorthStarCoach @Educating_Brum Honored to be in your squad and on this slide. It’s mutually beneficial too. Let me know if you want a better picture next time! 😂 📸

Talking today about the power of networks. A very non exhaustive set of examples below of people who inspire me & I turn to for advice, alongside the fab CEASH HT group. @HeadGeog @EldonPrincipal @ottleyoconnor @_NorthStarCoach @Educating_Brum

A 🧵 to reflect an incredible week alongside @field_army CFA who was delivering the annual Kermit Roosevelt lectures to @USArmy personnel. His theme was “The Power of Combinations”, and he connected lessons from history to early conclusions from #Ukraine. It was outstanding.
