Shhhhh 🤫 - the key elements of a Company Group on Ex WESSEX STORM move silently into position on a pitch black night ready for H-Hour. Commanders, Riflemen, Machine Guns, Anti-Tank and Recce all bringing something different to the party #OwnTheNight #STRIKE #MechInf pic.twitter.com/sxBRpeh1kS

In a STRIKE battlegroup the Company Commander has a lot more assets, giving him additional firepower and resilience, but also more to command and control. All arms coordination at the lowest level. #STRIKE #AnotherDayintheOffice #3Rifles pic.twitter.com/SGB65y96QA

As a Mechanised Battlegroup we would be nothing without our @Official_REME LAD. A vital part of our team they are constantly working hard in the background just to keep us on the road #OneHellofaTyreChange #REME #MechInf pic.twitter.com/hvIvkWrwev

Mastiff drivers practice driving over a @52AES bridge on a beautiful #Norfolk morning. Next, we’ll do it in the field, then at night, and then fully tactical in the field at night... #MechInf #Strike @thinkdefence @1ArmdInf pic.twitter.com/wQx9Iqexav

The question of how to provide Engineer mass once dispersed in a STRIKE concept? Use of Pioneers from @3_rifles may offer one solution... #Interoperability #MGB @22EngrRegt @CorpsSM @Proud_Sappers @Commander8X pic.twitter.com/xvPCrYoUSU
