Congratulations to an LD Cpl awarded top student on his crew commanders' course. Hard work pays off.
Ex Sunda Patrol with 1RGR in Brunei. Fantastic training for our soldiers in jungle warfare skills.
The potential non-commissioned officer cadre. PNCO. Where our soldiers transition into leaders. Well done all.
Proud of Tpr Pocklington and many more like him - building careers as light cavalry soldiers, seeing the world and representing the nation. army.mod.uk/news-and-event…

"No two weeks have been the same…" Life has been a bit of a blur since Second Lieutenant William Ferguson commissioned into the Light Dragoons - @LDLightCav - in August 2022. He shares his story with us: army.mod.uk/news-and-event… #SoldierStories #FindWhereYouBelong
Mounted and dismounted - light cavalry soldiers have to be experts at both.
Ex SPRING STORM is over and The Light Dragoons are returning to the UK ready for future operations. 🇪🇪🇬🇧
Thanks to @LDLightCav and @tanks_a_lot_ @ChurchillsOwn for chatting to me for this piece (in tomorrow's paper and online now):

Light cavalry reconnaissance troops can cover more ground, faster, than any other land asset in the British Army. Ex SPRING STORM saw us cover up to 60km of forested terrain in hours, sweeping through Estonia at the front of a brigade advance.
Fantastic to meet @SheridanDani from @Telegraph this week: British troops will show Putin 'you can’t win here', says Estonia's PM telegraph.co.uk/world-news/202…
The Light Dragoons Battlegroup met the Estonian Prime Minister today on Ex SPRING STORM. A fantastic opportunity during a great exercise.

Just how good were these boys today? Not easy carrying a lead-lined oak casket with the late Queen within faultlessly but they’ve done just that. Massive hats off.
Farmers have positioned their tractors to form a guard of honour for the late Queen Elizabeth II as she passes through Aberdeenshire on her way to Edinburgh.
In Memoriam: Ten years ago, Sunday 9 September 2012, Sergeant Lee Davidson @LDLightCav, aged 32, a Doncaster man (heart of the recruiting area), killed in Afghanistan, leaving a pregnant wife and two sons. "Utterly loyal and ferociously hardworking." Viret in Aeternum. Merebimur.
