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.

Commandos set their sights on close-combat training
Royal Marines of 40 Commando honed their day and night-fighting skills with a week of intense training in mock towns in Kent. The Norton Manor-based commandos practised close quarters battle on special ranges at Lydd and Hythe, trying out an enhanced rifle sight to improve their already-impressive marksmanship.
Royal Marines of 40 Commando stand guard at the façade of a house on the ranges at Lydd and Hythe in Kent as Exercise Hawk – a week of close-combat training – draws to a close.
The commandos decamped from their base at Norton Manor in Somerset to the two training areas on the Channel.
The ranges at Lydd, about five miles west of Dungeness, have been used by troops for more than 150 years, while those at Hythe, a dozen miles to the east, are two centuries old and are dominated by a couple of Martello towers and Grand Redoubt, built to keep Napoleon at bay.
Some 200 years later, the ranges are in use almost daily – and have been adapted to meet the demands of today’s Armed Forces, with a mock modern-day housing estate, complete with roads, roundabouts and cars, built at both, while the Lydd ranges are strewn with wrecked old armoured vehicles.
40 Commando made full use of their week in Kent, from the annual combat marksmanship test to compound clearance and defending forward operating bases.
There was also the opportunity for the Royals to let loose with heavy weapons and each company carried out nighttime live firing.
And for the first time 40 tested the new ELCAN sight – there’s a small red cross for the aiming point – which is easier to use and better in the dark than the existing sights; troops still need to understand its capability, how to mount it on SA80 rifles and how to zero it – all of which was done in Kent.
For close quarters battle (also known as close combat or, in old parlance, hand-to-hand fighting), a separate sight is fitted on top of the ELCAN sight to allow the commandos to rapidly engage their targets.
As well as live firing, the Norton Manor men also used ‘simunition’ – simulated ammunition, which possesses the dynamics of the real thing, minus the lethality – to add an extra layer of realism to Exercise Hawk.
“40 Commando had plenty of time to practise close quarters skills and the simunition added a realistic dimension to the training,” explained Lt Dougal Loadman.

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.
RC-1138, also known as 'Delta-38' and "Boss", was a clone commando in the Grand Army of the Republic during the Clone Wars and Imperial commando of the Imperial Army. He was nicknamed "Boss" by his fellow clones, and was the sergeant of Delta Squad.
The “Pando Commando” glows in night vision from a festive jack-o’-lantern display, October 27, 2019, at Fort Drum, New York. The skiing panda, or “Pando Commando,” has recently gained popularity across the “Commando” brigade, or 2nd Brigade Combat Team, 10th Mountain Division (LI). The informal insignia originates from the Pando Valley near Camp Hale, Colorado, where the 10th Light Division (Alpine) was activated in 1943. When the unit was re-designated as the 10th Mountain Division (LI) in 1944, the Pando Commando remained as an unofficial logo and a piece of the division’s history.

Today 8th August, PB (Patrol Base) Paylae was collapsed as part of the hand over to the Americans. Royal Marines of 40 Commando and ANA (Afghan National Army), returned to FOB (Forward Operating Base) Jackson, Sangin.
Pictured are images of Charlie Company providing protection so the quads can bringing back stores and equipment back to FOB Jackson.
Pictured is a patrol by PMT (Police Mentoring Troop) from Forward Operating Base (FOB) Jackson, Sangin.
Members of the patrol were carrying small wind up power radios, to give out to locals as a gift to them.
Routine ground domination patrols to provide security for the local people are conducted every day in Afghanistan. There is nothing extraordinary about these patrols but they are absolutely critical to the success of the mission. The Royal Marines of the 40 Commando, working in Sangin, carry out patrols like these to ensure the provision of security to the area and give the local people confidence in the ISAF mission.
This particular patrol left from Forward Operating Base Jackson in Sangin and headed to the outskirts of the District Centre. Once there, the Marines patrolled around compounds using the narrow network of alleyways. They proactively interact and engage with the people, getting to know them and gaining a better understanding of the local area and the needs of the people. This friendly approach helps to identify any issues that the locals have; issues that ISAF or the stability and reconstruction teams will point out to the District Governor so that they can be resolved.
From here the patrol moved through the adjacent fields and countryside, heading towards the Southern Checkpoint.
Sgt Sully O’Sullivan, 34, the troop Sgt who led the patrol said:
“Since the harvest has finished, moving through the fields is preferable to moving through the high walled areas, where you feel channelled. The presence of locals is also a good sign, especially when there are children around; apart from always being pleased to see you it means that the insurgents are less likely to attack.”
The Sothern Checkpoint is manned and run by the Afghan National Police. The patrol dropped into the checkpoint for a well-earned break and to get a de-brief from the Afghan Police Officers on any incidents or problems that had incurred during the day.
After a 20 minute chat, the patrol moved off in the direction of the Sangin Bazaar. They slowly patrolled through the stalls, interacting with shopkeepers, children and customers alike. After 3 hours and covering a distance of 3-4 km with no incidents, the patrol headed back to Forward Operating Base Jackson to rest up before their next patrol.
UK Forces are deployed to Afghanistan in support of the UN authorised, NATO led International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) mission and as part of the US-led Operation Enduring Freedom (OEF). UK operations in Afghanistan are being conducted under the name Operation HERRICK.

Inspired by Sideshow's 1:6 Scale version of Snake Eyes and Hasbro's inadequacy to create a decent 12" collectible, I took it upon myself to design my own fig of the coolest Joe in history. With a little help from The Toyman, we were able to come up with a Custom-made Snake Eyes Action Figure that has interchangeable visors so he can easily switch from Classic-Look to Movie Mode. Packed with a Gazillion weapons...this Ninja Commando is ready to take on an entire battalion of Cobra Vipers.

The Jeepster Commando was a compact recreational vehicle produced by Kaiser Jeep from 1966–1970 and by American Motors Corporation (AMC) from 1970–1973. It was designed to compete with vehicles like the International Scout and Ford Bronco. Initially, it was offered in a variety of body styles, including a wagon, pickup, and convertible, before a redesign in 1972 by AMC simplified the grille and changed the name to "Jeep Commando".
