Riflemen Prove Themselves On Exercise In Kenya
One of the British Army's largest deployments of reservists overseas has been putting British soldiers to the test.
Forces TV has been given special access to follow more than 100 reservists and some 600 regulars being pushed to their limits in temperatures reaching 45ºC.
As Exercise Askari Storm draws to a close, the reservists go it alone in the final battle scenario. A chance for them to put their newly honed military skills and drills to the test.
However, as Fiona Weir discovered, the exercise wasn't without its frustrations.
