Today we honour the RAF ground specialists who fought for us on D-Day. 80 years on and their spirit lives on through Royal Air Force Global Enablement. The accompanying music by Sgt Bolton-King of RAF Music, is called Ground Intercept and it is dedicated to D-Day 80. #DDay80

Great to see King’s Colour Squadron today during their Public Order training, using command & control and controlled aggression; arguably the very business we’re in. Dynamic, intense and challenging. Good effort lads. #FightToDefend

It was an honour as CG of the RAF Regiment to attend the rededication of the new memorial at Black Eagle Camp in the Falkland Islands 🇫🇰, the HQ location during the FI conflict. And a privilege to do it alongside an old friend & FI veteran. 33 yrs since I last did a tour there!
