Summary

Description
English: Members of 2 Para Battlegroup HQ arrive at Keevil Airfield in preparation for their looming final assault on the enemy in the coming days, during Exercise Wessex Storm.

Across three days of high tempo activity on both the ground and in the air, the 2 PARA Battlegroup has launched on the final mission of Exercise Wessex Storm.

Fighting against a free-thinking enemy force on Salisbury Plain, the mission lets the paratroopers show their skills and readiness for short notice operations around the world.

The 2 PARA Battlegroup is built around the paratroopers of Colchester-based 2nd Battalion The Parachute Regiment, supported by signallers, engineers, artillery, medics and logistics specialists from 16 Air Assault Brigade. It is training to be ready to deploy at short notice on operations around the world.
