Nearly 1,000 military Belgians, mostly from the 2nd Battalion of Commandos Flawinne and 3 Battalion Paratroopers Tielen, and 150 French soldiers, supported by 4 C-130, will participate in ACTIVE TRIP. They will travel mainly by foot or by using light wheeled vehicles

Belgian airborne units are on alert, with 3 Parachute Battalion from Tielen and 2 Commandos from Flawinne, are about to help Belgian expatriates in the context of Exercise Active Trip.
Led by the Immediate Reaction Capability (IRC - Para-Commando Regiment), this exercise will also see the participation of the Federal Department of Foreign Affairs. The recent security crisis born of the earthquake in Haiti has highlighted the importance of coordination between the FPS Foreign Affairs and Defense during such a crisis. To gain experience in the field, a team composed of staff from both departments will participate actively in the consolidation of expatriates (about 450 civilians), reception and sorting of these before their evacuation by road or by air on board four C-130 Defence Belgian and a French C-160.

The sun is already setting on the right, giving a nice glow to this amazing monument near Spean Bridge (on the A82 towards Fort William) remembering the sacrifices of the British Commando's near their training grounds.
Sadly there are also quite a few graves of Commando's that died in Iraq.
Well... yeah... they are my own design, the legs are fully posable (not telling how), and generally pretty well made, if I do say so myself. ^^

This folding Ensign Commando belonged to my Grandfather, who passed it on to my Father, who passed it on to me. It was used to take some of the early photos of Moi!
It has folding barn doors inside which can close the 6x6 format down to 4.5x6 in a portrait format. The rangefinder window can be adjusted to the smaller format by sliding a masking frame in front, using a sliding knob. For a medium format camera, it is surprisingly compact, and produces some pleasingly crisp images. As the closest focussing distance is about 5ft, it has it's limitations, but below that distance parallax would become an increasingly significant consideration.

Located in moorland beside the A82 trunk road, 1¼ miles (2 km) northwest of Spean Bridge, is the Commando Memorial. This 5.1m (17-foot) high memorial was designed by Scott Sutherland, of Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art (Dundee) and unveiled by HM Queen Elizabeth, the Queen Mother (1900 - 2002) on 12th September 1952. The three soldiers which comprise the memorial look out from their plinth over Leanachan Forest to the peaks of Aonach Mor and Ben Nevis. It commemorates the elite force known as the 'Commandos', which was set up in 1940 on the orders of Prime Minister Winston Churchill (1874 - 1965) to harry the axis forces and regain the initiative on the part of Britain. The force trained in the area around this monument, with their Training Centre at Achnacarry, 4 miles (6 km) to the northwest.
The plinth of the memorial records the Commando's motto United We Conquer and a plaque states: "In Memory of the Officers and men of the Commandos who died in the Second World War 1939 - 1945. This Country was their Training Ground."
Introduced in 1965 to replace the Commer VC and VE range, the Commer Commando remained in production for 15 years, later as the Dodge and then Renault 100 Commander. It was also sold as a De Soto and Fargo in overseas markets. A Mk II version featured the black plastic grille depicted here. London Transport bought its first Commandos in the early 1980s when value-for-money took priority over previous preferences. These were all (or mostly) larger versions with double-cabs and tail lifts. Single-cab Mk IIs were later purchased with refuse collection bodies (04-Jul-25).
