Pictured: 17 Feb 2026 - Royal Marines from 40 Commando on the ground after being inserted on a joint raid by 847 Naval Air Squadron Wildcat HMA Mk2 Helicopter at Elvegårdsmoen military training camp, Norway.

 

Royal Marines from 40 Commando were inserted on a joint raid with the Royal Netherlands Marine Corps at Elvegårdsmoen military training camp using Wildcats from 847 Naval Air Squadron and a Dutch NH90 from 820 Squadron.

 

Aircraft from Commando Helicopter Force have deployed to Northern Norway to Royal Norwegian Air Force base, Bardufoss, in Northern Norway, for their annual workout in the Arctic Circle, Operation Clockwork.

 

The Commando Merlin and Wildcat operators will master their environment – testing themselves and their machines against the extreme cold.

 

Personnel will carry out survival training, ensuring they can live and move in the wilderness – learning to navigate, ski and build shelters and forage for food – before conducting sorties over Norway’s fjords and mountains.

 

Intensive flying operations will ensure the Commando Helicopter Force is able to effectively operate their aircraft in the Arctic – testing pilots, observers and engineers alike.

 

All of this work will lead up to Exercise Cold Response – the largest military exercises in the country in 2026, which will demonstrate the unity of NATO and the ability of the alliance to deter threats in the high north.

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.

Senegalese commandos provide security after their patrol was mock ambushed during a final exercise here between the commandos and U.S. Marines. The exercise and the past few weeks leading to this point have been enabled through Africa Partnership Station 2011, a maritime theater security cooperation engagement with a primary mission of military-to-military and subject-matter-expert exchanges between various West African nations and the U.S.

Die Mühli Hunziken ist eine ehemalige Mühle in Rubigen bei Bern in der Schweiz, die

seit 1974 zu einem Konzertlokal umgebaut worden ist.

 

Aufgebaut und geführt wurde sie bis am 2.3. J.uni 2.0.1.1 durch P.eter B.urkhart oder fast

besser bekannt als " M.üli - P.esche ". Für die G.eschicke der Mühli und die Ansagen

"... no churz zum hütige Abe ... " und "Isch öper mit em Zug cho?" sind neu die Gebrüder

F.ankhauser und S.ohn T.homas B.urkhart zuständig.

 

P.eter B.urkhart starb am 2.5. D.ezember 2.0.1.4

.

Ab dem S.B.B - B.ahnhof Rubigen an der S.trecke Bern - T.hun sind es etwa 1.0 - 1.5

Minuten zu Fuss.

.

.

.

Das Ambiente der Mühli ist sehr speziell, im Innern wie auch draussen hat es zahlreiche

Kunst- und Altagsgegenstände ausgestellt. Die U.hr zeigt immer fünf vor zwölf, über der

B.ühne schwebt ein S.chwein mit einer K.rone und ein F.uchs serviert eine G.ans. Von

ganz oben schaut auch E.T. den Konzerten zu und vor der Mühli sitzt J.ohn B.elushi auf

einer S.itzbank.

.

.

Die Bühne ist eher klein und man ist so sehr nahe bei den Musikern , man kann die

Konzerte aber auch von den drei oberen Stockwerken mitverfolgen wo man einen sehr

speziellen Blickwinkel auf die M.usiker hat.

.

.

.

.

Wer noch nie an einem Konzert in der Mühli war sollte dies bei Gelegenheit mal nachholen.

The Commando Memorial is a Category A listed monument in Lochaber dedicated to the men of the original British Commando Forces raised during World War II. It overlooks the training areas of the Commando Training Depot established in 1942 at Achnacarry Castle and unveiled in 1952 by the Queen Mother. It was created by the sculptor Scott Sutherland who won a competition to design the memorial in 1949.

 

The monument consists of a cast bronze sculpture of three Commandos in characteristic dress complete with cap comforter, webbing and rifle, standing atop a stone plinth. "United we conquer" is inscribed around the top of the stone plinth, while the original plaque on the stone 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”

 

A Garden of Remembrance, which was subsequently added to the site, is used by many surviving World War II Commandos as the designated final resting place for their ashes. It has also been used as a place where many families have scattered ashes and erected tributes to loved ones who belonged to contemporary Commando units and who have died in more recent conflicts such as the Falklands War or in Afghanistan and Iraq.
