Sappers from 26 Engineer Regiment have been busy practising digging protected positions for the armour of @12armdBCT today. The Terrier and Medium Tractor both have part to play in this job. Here some skilful de-turfing will help us put Salisbury Plain back to how it was after.

As part of the trek, the group followed the route taken by the British SOE on Op Typical during World War 2. To conclude the walk, they attended a memorial at the Sutjeska Monument with the British Ambassador @JulianReillyUK and members of @UKDefenceinBiH team. 🧵 2/3
