Exercise Crazy Trip 2009
Second battalion of commandos (2 Cdo), was preparing yesterday to make a leap up off from the operational base of Den Helder.
The day was devoted to training in amphibious landings.
Lieutenant-Colonel Closset, commanding officer of 2 Cdo, talks about the constraints an amphibious landing: "For an amphibious landing, there is a whole series of parameters that come into play. First, we must have the necessary resources in the right place at the right time. Then, we must respond to the challenge imposed by the weather: the tides, wind speed, sea state .. That aspect is a challenge particularly difficult to meet because by nature unpredictable. Finally, it is also to maintain the secrecy and discretion of the preparation to ensure the element of surprise during the execution of the operation.

RMC’s 1I have a love for the forces so I done this. This project was an end of year final major project. For this, we made a book: using Blurb, InDesign, Photoshop and Illustrator. On this show sheet, you can see the bottom, silhouette, illustration that’s I designed and made. I did this by using illustrator, but first I drew the figures of the Royal Marines out. I was going for a sunset background but changed it after I found textures on Photoshop, this was a much better style, and gave a better effect than a plain old sunset.
Lympstone Commando railway station is located on the Avocet Line, a branch line from Exeter to Exmouth
The station used to be for the exclusive use of visitors to the Royal Marine Commando Training Centre at Lympstone only. In recent times a new footpath and cycleway has been built between the railway and the camp so now the station is available for anyone to use.
