A huge congratulations to former learner Fusilier Perington, who has successfully passed out from Infantry Training Centre Catterick and is now joining The Royal Welsh.🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

Speaking to staff, he said:

“It all began at MPCT Cardiff. I couldn’t have completed my training without the guidance, support, and preparation provided by the staff.”

We are incredibly proud to have been part of his journey and to see him achieve this milestone. His dedication, resilience, and hard work have paid off, and this is only the beginning.

👏 Congratulations, Fusilier Perington. We wish you every success in your military career.

The future is bright.🇬🇧

Targets up.

Back in the UK, Flash Company have deployed to Castlemartin Ranges to conduct their annual gunnery camp. During this range package they will complete the full progression, including qualifying new gunners and the Annual Crew Test. The culmination of the live-firing is the integration of dismounted Sections allowing us to replicate the close-assault of enemy positions.

Can you see yourself as an armoured vehicle crewman? See the link in our bio.
