Members of 47th Regiment Royal Artillery fire a 21-gun salute at Edinburgh Castle to mark the arrival of King Charles for the start of Royal Week in Scotland

Great to visit 47th Regiment Royal Artillery today. What is being achieved by our Gunners Royal Artillery and attached arms in the US and here, in the face of so many pressures, is humbling. Moving forward together and making Watchkeeper into what it always promised. British Army 🇬🇧 #FindandStrike

Last weekend we entered the Cateran Yomp in the Cairngorms 🗻. It was a 54 mile walking challenge in <24hrs!

Both teams nailed it, the fastest team in 19hrs47!

Their description: challenging yet rewarding, putting mental resilience to the test👊🏼

RA Assembly at Blackpool this weekend. Meeting legends, celebrating courage and appreciating our forebears. We can learn so much from them. Our pride in our family is so powerful. Once a Gunner, always a Gunner. @rhqra 103RegtRA Kingdom of Fife Branch Royal Artillery Association Widnes Branch Royal Artillery Association #FindandStrike

Yesterday, Gnr Davies of 74 Bty received the Mansergh Award at the @rhqra assembly, for non-operational gallantry. We are incredibly proud.

“She represents the highest quality of a soldier and is thoroughly deserving of formal recognition.”

#SoldierExcellence #findandstrike

Blown away by Blackpool. My first RA Assembly. Our family’s pride in our Mansergh Award winner was palpable 47th Regiment Royal Artillery. Thank you Commander 7th Air Defence Group for presenting with me. Seamless! Thank you to all our regiments, branches and groups for supporting. @rhqra #FindandStrike

Well done on 2nd place to our 47 ladies team👊🏼🥈

The relationship between the Sovereign and His Army is also defined by service. At its heart is the solemn oath taken by every soldier to defend the nation against His Majesty’s enemies; to follow His example of selfless commitment and devotion to duty. (3/5)

Gun salutes, horses, marching detachments, Pipes and Drums, hard graft from all our people both Regular and Reserve. I couldn’t be more proud of the Gunners’ support to His Majesty’s #Coronation . I was bursting with it. I still am. #FindandStrike @rhqra. Out.

Brigadier Budd, Commander of the Deep Recce Strike BCT, and Head of Profession for the @rhqra visited the Watchkeeper Flying School this week.

The WKFS is the Regiment’s hub for RPAS Pilot and Ground Crew training and recently qualified 4 new Pilots🙌🏼
