Royal Marines are evolving drone tactics to deliver battlefield logistics at speed.
“It means that we can do more with less and use our people in a better place or in an alternative area and keep them safer whilst being more lethal.”

Wherever you are in the world, I would like to wish all Royal Marines, past and present, a very happy 362nd Birthday! Proud of our heritage, united by our Commando spirit, and bound by a brotherhood that knows no borders. Once a Royal Marine, always a Royal Marine.

47 years in the Royal Marines comes to an end in style with 1SL. It’s been an extraordinary journey, and I feel incredibly lucky to have shared it with so many fantastic people. The Corps gave me purpose, opportunities and experiences, but ultimately, it gave me a family.

It was a privilege to see President @ZelenskyyUa again and welcome him and the Prime Minister @andyburnham to HMNB Portsmouth for the first time.
Ukraine’s unwavering courage and determination is an inspiration to the @RoyalNavy.
We stand with them now and always.

The massed bands of HM Royal Marines formed up for Beating Retreat a tradition dating back to the 17th century, when drums were used to signal the end of the day and call troops back to camp. Today, it has evolved into one of the most iconic military ceremonies in the world.

Falklands War. Hard to believe it was 44 years ago tonight, but I remember the moment, locking eyes with the Marine beside me, no words just the understanding that neither of us knew what waited ahead… only that we would face it together. Then we turned left into the fire 🫡

In my 47-year career, I have experienced many incredible moments. However, I am truly honoured to have received my valedictory certificate, at the Presentation of Colours, signed and presented by The King. 🫡

44 years ago tonight we crossed the water in tense silence landing in the dead of night, clambering ashore onto the Falklands. As my boots hit the ground, my first experience of war had began.🫡

On this day 44 years ago, Operation Paraquet led to the successful recapture of South Georgia by the Royal Marines & British Armed Forces. This followed an initial incursion on 3 April by the Argentine military, which was one of the earliest flashpoints of the Falklands War. 🫡
