HQ RMAS welcomed Commander Home Command today for his first visit to the Academy since Major General Duncan Capps CBE assumed the role of Commandant. He was briefed on the work during the COVID-19 crisis plus direct recognition of the work by 2x Reservists. #sandhurst Tyrone Urch


I was invited by Gurkha Company Sittang to watch their Inter Section Shooting Competition. GCS are integral to training Royal Military Academy Sandhurst, providing vital support to exercises. Great to see them honing their soldiering skills for a busy term ahead! #Sandhurst #Gurkhas #BritishArmy


On Mon, I visited 44 Squadron, part of Sandhurst Support Unit which provides transport, communication and vehicle repair to all RMAS activity. The Sqn has done some outstanding work in preparation for the new term. Well done! This account has moved to @UKArmyLogistics Royal Military Academy Sandhurst #BritishArmy #AlwaysReady


Good luck to the 96 Officer Cadets from Commission Course Short 202 who have started their 8-week Course at Royal Military Academy Sandhurst. This includes 72 Officer Cadets who attended University Officer Training Corps and 6 Overseas Cadets, 5 from the Cayman Islands and 1 from Bermuda.


I had the pleasure of visiting the Intermediate Term Royal Military Academy Sandhurst on Ex Roberts’s Return on Hankley Common. Ex RR is an excellent shakeout for the Officer Cadets prior to more arduous exercises later in the term. #Leaders #BritishArmy #BackToWork


Yesterday I had a fantastic virtual visit to Exeter UOTC. All the University Officer Training Corps have done great work in the virtual space and adapted so well in the current environment. I look forward to visiting more in the coming months. #UOTC #University #BritishArmy


Last week the senior term completed Ex Dynamic Victory in Norfolk. At the end of the exercise I awarded the rank of Junior Under Officer to the cadets that have excelled Royal Military Academy Sandhurst. Well done to them for all the hard work over the last year! #exercise #leader #armyconfidence


This week I announced the winner of the Sovereigns’ Banner Competition. Awarded to the best platoon in the intake, they will have the honour of trooping the Sovereigns’ Banner on the Sovereigns’ Parade later in the term. Royal Military Academy Sandhurst #britisharmy #parade #armyconfidence


Well done to all those awarded Long Service and Good Conduct medals Royal Military Academy Sandhurst. To qualify soldiers and officers must complete 15 years of exemplary service. #britisharmy #career #armyconfidence #medal


Well done SSgt Brimble, outstanding work and has recently been awarded RAPTC Sports Coach of the Year 19/20 for his work with the RAPTC Rugby Club. True example of Royal Military Academy Sandhurst excellence. #ArmyConfidence #coach #mentor



I couldn’t be more #proud of my son who commissioned from Royal Military Academy Sandhurst a few days ago. He and his c.250 classmates have achieved extraordinary things these past 12 months. Good luck to you all! #findwhereyoubelong #britisharmy #family


During an excellent visit to Bristol UOTC yesterday, I heard from staff how training will be delivered this term. They continue to adapt to provide students with outstanding training and unique experiences #UOTC #university #leadership #BritishArmy


Well done to Southampton University Officers’ Training Corps & Oxford UOTC who have just completed distanced annual training. They continue to provide challenging and rewarding training to university students, developing #leadership skills no matter their future careers. #studentlifelessordinary #freshers2020


A huge well done to Gurkha Company Sittang for raising over ÂŁ800 through Trail Walker 2020 for the Gurkha Welfare Trust. Collectively running 100km, each individual ran a half-marathon leg. A fantastic achievement and a great cause. The Gurkha Welfare Trust #gurkhas #charity





I was delighted to visit Ex DYNAMIC VICTORY where senior term completed their final exercise of the Commissioning course. With less than 3 weeks to go at Royal Military Academy Sandhurst they are all nicely set to start their Initial Trade Training. #leadership #BritishArmy
