- 11 years ago we were all on operations together in Afghanistan. Today these men command the three regular parachute battalions & they jumped into Arnhem this morning to commemorate the 75th anniversary of the battle that still defines the fighting spirit of our paratroopers.
- Today I am humbled to lay a wreath at the Cenotaph on behalf of the @BritishArmy. We will always remember them. #remembranceday2022
- I'm delighted that Capt Tom Moore has agreed to be Honorary Colonel of AFC Harrogate where our youngest soldiers are trained & educated. He is an inspiration & role-model to generations and this deserved promotion is applauded across all ranks. Happy 100th Birthday Colonel Tom!
