Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Pictured is a Corporal of Horse from the Household Cavalry briefing his men prior to a 24hr patrol in the jungles of Brunei.

Household Cavalry soldiers shown developing and testing their reconnaissance skills during a training exercise in the demanding jungles of Brunei.

Exercise ULU RAJAH offered five weeks of tough, realistic training in a close country tropical environment. Even the simplest of tasks becomes a challenge with visibility reduced to a few metres, intensely hot and humid conditions, clouds of biting insects, poisonous plants and animals, a canopy that blocks out the sun and extremely steep terrain.

From conducting long range reconnaissance to live firing in some of the most demanding terrain on the planet.

Household Cavalry soldiers are very familiar to the public in the State Ceremonial role, the trusted guardians of HM The Queen on their famous black horses; however, at any given time the large majority of Household Cavalry soldiers are on operational duty as reconnaissance soldiers.

Having just completed a year of being at high readiness to deploy across the world mounted in their light armoured vehicles, they have taken the opportunity to hone their dismounted skills.
