Summary

[edit]
Description
English: A Royal Marines Reservist, complete with rifle and webbing, hauls himself across a river.

A group of 80 Royal Marine Reservists were taking part in a demanding two week high altitude mountain training exercise at the US Mountain Warfare Training Centre in the Sierra Nevada Mountains, California, USA.

All the volunteers within the RMR have passed through the same rigorous Commando Course as their regular Royal Marines counterparts. Volunteers may be civilians with no previous military experience, or have transferred from the TA or were former Royal Marines. The volunteers who make up the RMR are from varied backgrounds and are drawn from all walks of civilian life.

The RMR consists of approximately 600 trained ranks, who are distributed between the five RMR Centres within the UK. Approximately 10% of the RMR are working with the Regular Corps on long term attachments in all of the Royal Marines regular units.
