The purpose of the exercise, in collaboration with French soldiers from 35 (RAP Parachute Infantry Regiment) and the Federal Public Service Foreign Affairs, is training in the procedures and techniques for Non-combatant Evacuation Operations ( NEO).
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
Main Caption
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.

Picked up a good haul of vintage Commando Comics at Vintage Nostalgia, very happy! I went through a whole suitcase and just picked out a handful by my favourite couple of illustrators, mostly Jose Maria Jorge and John Ridgway, but a couple by Denis McLoughlin and Gordon Livingstone too.

Near to Ben Nevis, there is a memorial for the Commando group from World War 2.
The Commandos did a lot of their training in this area, so this is a fitting location.

On 31 January 2026, 42 Commando, Royal Marines, The 4th Battalion, Ranger Regiment (4 RANGER) and 2 Squadron, RAF Regiment conducting two simultaneous assaults on a target building to neutralise the threat during a training exercise as part of Exercise HYPERION STORM.
Flying low over the moorland, two Chinooks support a land attack by Jackal 2 assault vehicles. After the target was secured, the Chinooks touched down, and the special operations forces embarked again, flying back to their base at RAF Leeming in North Yorkshire. Conducted over two weeks in January 2026, Exercise HYPERION STORM is a validation exercise for the Task Groups who will be under the command of the Special Operations Command Centre (SOCC).
After two years of intensive preparation and training, including the building of a new NATO Joint Operations Headquarters, the UK is ready to lead the NATO Allied Reaction Force (ARF) Special Operations Component. Growing in complexity, the rigorous training has built on the skills required for Special Operations to ensure they are fully interoperable with NATO partners.
Unique in that it commands a Joint Special Operations Force (SOF) of Maritime, Land and Air task groups, the Special Operations Component Command (SOCC) was successfully validated in Norway by the NATO Special Operations Forces Command Evaluation team.
Ex Hyperion Storm is a validation exercise for the Task Groups that will be under the command of the SOCC. It requires the Special Operations Maritime Task Group (SOMTG), the Special Operations Land Task Group (SOLTG) and the Special Operations Air Task Group (SOATG) to be tested on their core skills: Special reconnaissance (SR); Direct Action (DA) and Military Assistance (MA). In addition to these UK Task Groups, the SOCC will command a Spanish Special Operations Land Task Group.

The Commando Memorial stands some 17ft high, and comprises a group of three bronze Commandos dressed in typical World War Two uniforms and equipment including cap comforters, ammunition pouches and weapons. They are looking south towards Ben Nevis. A large inscription on the plinth just beneath their feet reads "United We Conquer", while the plaque on the front of the plinth reads: "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."
In 1949 a competition was opened to Scottish sculptors to design a fitting memorial to the Commandos. The winner was Scott Sutherland, and the bronze was cast by H H Martyn Ltd, of Cheltenham. The Commando Memorial was unveiled by HM Queen Elizabeth, the Queen Mother, on 12 September 1952. It has since become a stopping off point for many visiting the highlands: partly because of what the memorial represents; partly because it is simply such a fine monument; and partly because of its magnificent setting.

"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."
In 1940, Winston Churchill ordered the raising of an elite force (from not just the UK, but allies America, Belgium, France, Norway, Poland, Germany (Jews), and Holland) to be trained in tactics, unarmed combat, survival skills and war techniques using the latest weapons and equipment. Achnacarry in Lochaber, with Ben Nevis only 18 miles away, was chosen as the location of the Centre. The nearby lochs and rivers were used to teach boat handling skills and to practice assault landings, and there was a great emphasis on night training. Live ammunition was used in all training exercises resulting in many losing their life in training alone. Those who completed the training (my paternal Grandfather William Harvey included) were given the coveted Green Beret.
The Commandos were awarded 38 battle honours, 8 Victoria Crosses, 37 Distinguished Service Orders (9 with bars), 162 Military Crosses (13 with bars) and 218 Military Medals, some of the battles they fought were the bloodiest of the Second World War. My Grandpa lost his life in street fighting in Flushing, Holland, Nov 1944.
The Commando Memorial towers above Spean Bridge, three gigantic bronze figures standing proud in battledress, woollen caps and climbing boots looking across the Great Glen. Designed by Scott Sutherland from Dundee College of Art in 1949, it was unveiled by HM Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother in 1952. Hundreds of veteran Commandos and their families, and the families of those who gave their lives, make the annual pilgrimage to the Service of Remembrance and Wreath Laying held at the Memorial each November.
Soldiers of Headquarters and Headquarters Company, 2nd Brigade Combat Team, 10th Mountain Division, begin setting up tents which function as the brigade's command post in tactical environments during a command post training exercise, November 18, at Fort Drum, New York. This CPX is the second in a series of training events allowing the brigade staff to rehearse, execute and evaluate the collective training tasks essential to the brigade’s mission. Soldiers across the Commando brigade have spent months progressing from individual to collective mission essential tasks as they work toward brigade level certification at the Joint Readiness Training Center.

The Memorial, at Spean Bridge, Lochaber has the dedication " 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".
