- 359 Years of unwavering service. Excellence the only standard. To all @RoyalMarines past and present, thank you and HAPPY BIRTHDAY! #RoyalMarines #Bootnecks #PerMarePerTerram
- How to make something already hoofing look even better? #Slowmo @RoyalMarines in #Norway conducting anti-tank training with the NLAW missile system in the #Arctic environment. 🗡️⚓🇬🇧
00:00 - Earlier this week, our commandos embarked on a long-range strike exercise in the High North. One company is discreetly inserting on skis to strike a target, while another hunts them using drones.
- The names of all those who have died in the service of 45 Commando are immortalised in the Woodlands Garden. Today we reflect on a dark day in Afghanistan from 2006 and 2008. We will remember them. #LestWeForget
- Day 3 of Mountain Training and things are beginning to look a bit more like the Arctic 🇧🇻 @RoyalMarines @3Cdo_Bde @RoyalNavy @29_commando
- Commandos let loose on heavy weapons as they prepare to deploy as a Strike Company within Littoral Response Group (North). @RoyalMarines #LittoralStrike #FutureCommando
00:00 - My RSM will kill me for putting this up but so proud of him receiving his Meritorious Service Medal today aboard HMS Victory. 28 years of outstanding service. (He’s the big bloke in green in the middle next to the Second Sea Lord)#sorrynotsorryRSM
- 🌗 Night firing planned 5-7 November For our locals in Arbroath enjoying Guy Fawkes night, there may be some background noise from Condor as we train on our small arms 5-7 November 4pm-midnight
00:00 - We've arrived in Norway and jumped straight in the (icy) deep end by starting training with the survival phase of the Cold Weather Warfare Course. In true bootneck fashion, training involved a dip in the oggin with the obligatory ice-breaking drills! @RoyalMarines 🗡️🇬🇧⚓
- You don't normally see this..Why? Commandos raid from the Sea, in the most challenging conditions, under the cover of darkness. #LittoralStrike #UKResponseGroup @ComdLittoralSG @RoyalNavy @RoyalMarines
00:00 - It’s important to stop and reflect on the sacrifices made by those who came before us. The Battles of Narvik saw a combined operation of forces from the UK, Norway, France and Poland defeat the occupying Kriegsmarine. The ice-free port retains strategic relevance today.
