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.

PISA, Italy -- Headquarters, Allied Rapid Reaction Corps (HQ ARRC) recently deployed close to 40 of its personnel to Pisa, Italy to conduct a training exercise designed to test the short-notice, rapid deployment of the Innsworth, United Kingdom-based headquarters’ reconnaissance elements.
Exercise ARRCADE RECCE will continue through Friday this week (28 March) in and around the Pisa area, and will see ARRC personnel traveling to many locations throughout the Tuscany area, from Genoa in the north to Grossetto in the south.
The multinational personnel participating in the exercise will be practicing the NATO rapid deployment headquarters' deployment (logistics, transportation-related) and reach-back (communications-related) tasks and procedures.
During the exercise, they will be required to practice not only the ARRC's ability to set up and utilize the HQ's state-of-the art communications equipment (communicating with SHAPE/NATO, the ARRC in the UK, etc.), but also conduct necessary recces of the surrounding area to establish follow-on locations for deploying command posts, enablers, and the main force.
To do this, ARRC personnel will visit airports, seaports, military bases, and meet with a plethora of local and regional civic leaders, all of whom have agreed to assist the ARRC in their exercise by 'acting out' different roles in the exercise's scenario.
Ultimately, the training event is designed to simulate a real ARRC deployment, at the beginning of which the ARRC would traditionally deploy its Operational Liaison and Reconnaissance Teams (OLRT) in advance of the rest of the headquarters in order to get everything ready and coordinate any/all logistics/transportation/etc. needs before the rest of the multinational headquarters deploys.
“This exercise is an excellent opportunity for us to not only practice our ability to plan for and conduct an operational deployment, but work with one of our Partner Nations - Italy, said ARRC spokesman Major Chris Hyde.
"We could not be more grateful to the people of Tuscany, and Italy in general, for the great depth of assistance, and warm hospitality, they have provided to every member of our team during our stay in the region."

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.

Ok, so for the last week I've had this increasingly strong feeling that my photography business brand is missing something. I'm not happy with my logo. I'm not happy with the feel of my website (although I'm happy with the overall design). There's just something missing. What makes it harder is that my photography business brand is me. I can't separate the two. I mean, the photos I take are my style, so my business has to be me.
It came to a head last night when I decided to do something about it. I mean, my business background is in marketing -- specifically brand management. But, you know ... sometimes its hardest to see something that is so personal.
I did some research on hiring a company to help me with my look and feel, but realized before I could engage them, I needed to tell them, or show them who I am. A little while ago I sat in the middle of my family room with a huge stack of magazines and catalogs in front of me and cut out anything that I found appealing -- whether it was because of style, or color, or design, or feel of the image. I took a huge piece of cardboard I had and taped all these images on the board.
Here's what I came up with.
Now, to try to decipher this.
What do you see?
THE biggest live exercise of its kind ever held in Greater Manchester – Exercise Triton II – came to an end this morning (Friday, July 16, 2016) after months of intense planning.
Around 36 organisations across the region and nationally have been taking part in this major emergency planning exercise which saw dozens of emergency vehicles at sites across Greater Manchester and Chinook helicopters flying across the skies.
The complex scenario used was designed to test how local authorities, emergency services and other partners are equipped to tackle a major emergency working together.
Participating ‘players’ also included the military, government, health and utility companies, as well as voluntary agencies.
The exercise started on Monday, July 11, 2016, with ‘warnings’ from the Met Office regarding adverse weather and from the Environment Agency about the growing risk of regional flooding.
The emergency services, including Greater Manchester Fire and Rescue Service (GMFRS), and partners put procedures in place to ensure that where possible properties and critical infrastructure were protected and the public were warned. This theme was carried on through Tuesday, July 12 and Wednesday, July 13, 2016.
To ensure that both players and plans were tested to their full, a dramatic scenario developed on Thursday, July 14, whereby the bank on the Dove Stone Reservoir in Oldham was breached and water cascaded through a number of boroughs within Greater Manchester.
This meant that evacuation procedures had to be put in place and rest centres set up. Later in the day, a coach ploughed into the River Tame in a mock crash and a full-scale search and rescue operation was carried out.
Paul Argyle, GMFRS’ Deputy County Fire Officer and Chair of Greater Manchester Resilience Forum, said: “Exercise Triton II was a hugely complex emergency planning exercise and I would like to thank all of the agencies that have taken part this week.
"This was a very detailed scenario which had impacts across every part of the region and necessitated a full range of partners taking part.
"The scale of the destruction and chaos in the exercise was deliberately designed to test the region at full stretch.
"We have to do this to ensure we are well prepared to deal with any future real-life event or disaster that might occur – and it is also invaluable that those taking part got the chance to practise essential response skills that would be used during a major incident like this.
"I would particularly like to thank all the volunteers who took part in this exercise. The patience and understanding of local residents and communities on Thursday (as response plans went into effect at 'live' sites) was also greatly appreciated.
“All players have now been 'stood down'. Our next task is to evaluate how the exercise went, step by step. We will want to find out what worked well and crucially to identify and learn any lessons that could help us in the future in real-life situations. I would like to point out that incidents as extreme as this are highly unlikely, but ensuring we practice our response means that we are ready to respond to a variety of scenarios."
