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.

Marine Jon Crookes keeping watch
Royal Marines from Charlie Company, 40 Commando Group have carried out an operation to clear improvised explosive devices (IEDs) from a busy market street in the village of Pylae in the Sangin valley. Working in conjunction with colleagues from the Counter-IED Task Force, the marines put in place a cordon around the suspect street to prevent locals from endangering themselves during the clearance and to limit interference from insurgents.

Progress in difficult terrain
The march is a big part of the training program of paratroopers. A specific exercise expects all companies to the Immediate Reaction Capabillity, paracommando regiment: the increase in difficult terrain.
During 72 hours, the paratroopers are on course for Norway, with all their gear, to defy nature. The first day, they must complete 21 km in difficult terrain, 16 second and 10 the next day. This is not a Sunday stroll: with a backpack of 20 pounds and only a map and a GPS to navigate, the slightest mistake is a detour of several miles. The evening, soldiers sleep in their small tents placed on bivouacs.
On the second day, a formidable obstacle stands: zip line across the ravine formed by a winding river of ice water. Both strings were arranged by the Commando Training Centre at the beginning of the year. The military docks by a pulley with his equipment, then moves away from the rock to slide down the other side.
Since the ground is plowed in the last few weeks, most shrubs are still in bud. But the harsh wind that sweeps the board leaves little room for anything other than brush, rocks and moss carpet, dotted here and there a bush.
In fact, if the Norwegian nature is beautiful, she is especially unforgiving. The sun can shine and then fade away 20 minutes later for a painful hailstorm. The military protecting themselves by keeping appropriate. Not too hot for walking, but not enough to cool off during the break, and effective protection against rain and snow that remains to more than 600 m above sea level. Of course, the terrain complicates progress: no path but a rocky surface where you must take care not the slightest. Endurance, guidance and winter hardiness, that is the goal of this training.

Ian Hamiltons 73 Commando. I rebuilt the engine and gearbox on this bike in the early 80's for Ian. He spent 12K$ on it back then. Superb riding bike.
