Young Officers from 26 Regiment RA last week completed their final exercise before qualifying to join their regiments. Raids, deployments and reloads aplenty. @1_brigade @Commandant_RSA
Last week, L4 Acks and FST Comds deployed on, COVID compliant, Dry Fire Planning serials building confidence and complexity. Majority were on time, target and safe but the best lessons were learnt. All set for live missions this week. @Commandant_RSA @Comd_1Arty 7 Para RHA
Many Congratulations to all those successful on boards today. The wing had huge successes. The Master Gunner selected for RSM 7 Para RHA, Maj Hyslop for SUC 29 Commando and Capt Jones for promotion to Maj and British Army Majors’ School 🦉. #SuccessStories
FST Comds and L4 Acks have completed Live Fire Plans, dry fire planning serials and JFC training working in support of BC level Fire Plans. All On Time, On Target and Safe. Thanks to Irish Guards for assisting with first rate MFCs and Mortar support. @Commandant_RSA @LWC_UK
Today the wing hosted @Comd_1Arty. He visited the MLRS cab simulator, Guns and Ammunition Section and Lt Gun CCD, presented an LS and GC and went to see FST Comd and FST L4 Ack Live Fire Planning on SPTA #allinadayswork @Commandant_RSA The Field Army @rhqra
Capt Lindsey Denyer has been working with Future Heroes Estonia, a leadership program for 15-19-year old girls, and on Saturday she presented awards recognising determination. Great to see the BG's leaders making such a difference. 1st Regiment Royal Horse Artillery @ComdUKeFP #WeAreNATO
Always innovating. On Ex Cypher Strike, 7 Para RHA’ Fire Support Teams are testing new shelters designed to improve thermal and visual camouflage when working in static Observation Posts
FST Commanders FIND and STRIKE targets on the Battlefield. Here the course experience live rounds for the first time confirming technical skills so far. Bombard OP next week and Danger Close Missions. @Commandant_RSA @Comd_1Arty @LWC_UK British Army 🇬🇧
A great article from a former Regimental Colonel of the @rhqra. Still supporting and inspiring. South Central Ambulance Service British Army 🇬🇧 Richard Mealand
Last week the Wing said farewell to the Master Gunner, WO1 (MG) Challoner. He has helped face training during C-19 head on and will be sorely missed. A side step from RSA sees him assuming the prestigious role as Regimental Sergeant Major of 7 Para RHA. Best of luck.
The British Army 🇬🇧, Royal School of Artillery recently achieved an important milestone – it fired the 20,000th round of synthetic training ammunition using Cubic’s Artillery Mission Training System. cubic.com/news-events/bl… #defenceindustry #defencetraining #wearecubic #LVC #blog
Engagements on all levels with RSA Close Support Wing! The last two weeks has seen the FST Commanders Course consolidate simulated training in a live environment. Concurrently the Wing has had the pleasure of hosting DLW and CFA to showcase innovation and integration.
