The Sergeant Major and a few of our other lads return from their R&R laden with shoe boxes full of sweets, toiletries and puzzle books.
It was fantastic to find out that a local North-East school had compiled these parcels together and had donated them to us.
It was a great morale boost and it is so nice to know that people back home really do support about us and what we are trying to achieve out here. To all those pupils and their families we really do thank you so much.
