26 Regiment Gunners Prepare For New NATO Role
In just over eighteen months Britain will lead a rapidly deployable multinational formation intended to deter any Russian threat to NATO territory in the wake of the Ukraine conflict.
The Very High Readiness Joint Task Force is also known as the Spearhead and the Royal Artillery will provide much of the firepower.
The Gunners of 26 Regiment have already started preparing for a new role which will be a big change after years of operations in Afghanistan.
