Summary

[edit]
Description
English: A soldier of 5 RIFLES kneels near the end of a patrol in Helmand, Afghanistan as the sun begins to set casting long shadows across the road. Only a matter of hours later the troops will be starting before dawn to begin their next patrol.

In August 2014, 5 RIFLES and the Queen's Royal Hussars (QRH) completed the final operation to be carried out by the Warthog Group before Op Herrick ends later in the year. The operation, which concentrated on the Lashkar Gar area, was carried out to maintain security in the area surrounding Camp Bastion. The 5 RIFLES dismount were transported and offered strength in depth from the Warthog armoured vehicles by the QRH.
