Service Personnel Preparing to Take on Everest's "Deadly" North Face
A team of regular and reserve servicemen and women are preparing to take on the North Face of Everest.

But as well as tackling the world's highest mountain, the team is also contributing to crucial scientific research which could have an impact on future deployments.
