C SQN RMLY<br />

EXERCISE<br />

YEOMAN TRACKER<br />

As the temperature plummeted<br />

to -10 C (Cheshire Yeomanry) Sqn<br />

RMLY started the new year with<br />

a low level skill exercise on Leek<br />

Training area.<br />

<strong>The</strong>y practiced dismounted skills,<br />

command and control, signals<br />

and fitness with a cross country<br />

navigation exercise. Plenty of warm<br />

brews kept moral high.<br />

On arrival at SHQ for the<br />

night, the SQMS had rustled up a<br />

traditional Burns Supper: haggis,<br />

neeps and tatties with a tot of malt!<br />

Basic troop mounted skills<br />

such as hide routines, cam and<br />

concealment were practised and<br />

the road move from and to Chester<br />

refreshed vehicle husbandry,<br />

maintenance and recovery.<br />

<strong>The</strong> Exercise was well attended<br />

by both Sabre Troops, REME and G4<br />

who all deployed on the ground to<br />

hone their basic soldiering skills.<br />
