Personnel from HQ ARRC participate in Adventure Training.
Team building is the cornerstone of any successful military unit.
Last week June 22 to June 26 service members from the headquarters participated in Exercise RIDGEMASTER in Wales, along the Pembrokeshire coast. Personnel from the UK, French and German contingent were among the nations participating in the exercise; HQ ARRC's annual adventure training exercise.
RIDGEMASTER is a team building exercise coordinated bt Lt Commander Guy Richards, HQ ARRC, Support Division. The exercise gives the nations a chance to bond with other services and nations.
"Ridgemaster gets people away from their desk," said Lt Cdr Richards. "It allows participants to challenge themselves both mentally and physically, as well as develop team skills and leadership skills which is expected of military personnel," he added.
The exercise allowed participants to not only work as a combined team in the different elements, but also to interact with partner nations serving from the Navy, Army and Royal Air Force.
The five-day exercise comprised of mountain biking, sea kayaking and rock climbing.
Lt Co. Thorsten has been with ARRC since September 2014 working in the G5 cell.
He said "The exercise was a great opportunity to get out and provided a great amount of challenges as well".
"This is a great opportunity for us to practice and learn more about our strengths and weaknesses while simultaneously building team camaraderie," said Thorsten. "I would encourage people from the entire staff to participate in the Adventure Training," said the German officer.

I just got my first electric bike and love it! It’s a Benno Boost 10D, designed to casual everyday use. I plan to ride it instead of a car for all my local errands and meetings, to reduce my energy use and exercise more.
The Benno Boost has a powerful Bosch CX motor for riding up steep hills, as well as dual batteries to extend my range to 100 miles and can recharge in just a few hours. This cargo bike includes large bags for groceries, or bringing tools and supplies to local events -- so I have no excuse to drive a car unless I’m going far or it’s raining hard. It rides really smoothly and is well designed for comfort, safety and durability.
My new ebike will make it easier for me to ride every day, without getting exhausted going up our steep hills. I also love that biking helps us connect with our neighbors, scaling back our transportation to a more human scale -- and inviting us to live more lightly on the earth.
Many thanks to our friends at The New Wheel for helping me find the right ebike! My pal Geo and I did a lot of testing before selecting this model, which will pull our Earth Bike and Green Change Caravan. Vive les velos électriques!

Exercise Javelin Chase
Brig. Tim Carmichael, commander, 1 Signal Brigade, Headquarters Allied Rapid Reaction Corps (HQ ARRC), hosted Exercise Javelin Chase (EJC), July 8-9. The race was organized to raise funds to support the Help for Heroes charity.
EJC is a 24-hour running race where 8-man teams will compete to see which team will complete the most laps on a one-mile course in 24-hours. The winning team will be the team that has completed the most amounts of laps in the time period. This could vary from 150 to 200 laps.
Each team had to raise a minimum of £250 to participate in EJC.
“This is a charity race to raise money for Help for Heroes, which is a national charity that looks after the needs of injured military serving members and former service members,” said Brig. Carmichael.
He said they hope to raise a total of £5000 if not more and every single penny will be donated to Help for Heroes charity.
The event took place at the sports field behind HQ ARRC Officer’s Mess. The course was on grass and tracks with no tarmac that winds around and through the woods. As if it wasn’t going to be challenging enough to run 24-hours, the rain on opening day would make it a little more testing.
In the 24-hours a combined total of 2426.00 miles were covered, with the winning team, 299 Signal Squadron, Special Communication running 222 of those miles, and 22 Signal Regiment coming in second with 217 laps.

In Dongdan park there's a "playground" filled with adult-sized equipment for people to keep fit.
I met an old couple using this back exerciser and they insisted I give it a try. I was surprised how much effort it took to lift the bar.
On the other end of the park, they were giving free hearing tests and other kinds of checkups, I suppose as a service of the two hospitals that overlook the park, Beijing Hospital and Tongren Hospital.
