Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Pictured is a Royal Marine of P Squadron, 43 Commando, during the urban assualt phase of Exercise Serpent Rock 2020 on the Gibraltar Rock.

Over 80 of these highly trained Commandos spent 2 weeks in early November 2020 on Exercise Serpent Rock honing their skills with a night-time vertical assault and dawn attack followed by an abseil extraction back down ‘The Rock’.

This annual exercise sees the Royal Marines making best use of Gibraltar’s unique terrain, undertaking amphibious and cliff assaults, close quarter battle in urban environments and within the network of tunnels the Rock is famous for, as well as patrolling its streets, thoroughfares and the narrow alleyways and passages that pepper this British overseas territory.
