Come to the end of his 34 month posting to British Army Training Unit Suffield in Alberta Canada where the regiment firmly in his blood the command of his position was one that. From literally almost day one in his army career. Reports. Course ever arrived to achieve. Things I think we've cracked 90 percent of what I wanted to do so that's great Did you ever see yourself becoming come on the process really lucky so you are came here 1st in 19061 exercise going about as a very sort of charismatic distant figure on a hill in a red truck came back hill his safety saw for 6 months lumper of the one the best 6 months of my life who is all things traveling around and great time on the prairie and that's when I really wanted to come back here for a job really and I've been back here is almost every job in a bus group and in a brigade and in a division here is a stove running an exercise design exercise and running it so to be absolutely able to come here and come on has been a huge privilege it's a great place to be so much soldiering on the prairie surrounded by deep who want to be good at their profession really great place to be how many days of the 3 years here have you spent actually away from home on the prairie and it's not far from home but it is away from home but enough where there's only a sleeping out there to commit to the exercise prairie storm which is $34.00 days we have to prepare before it is also up for about 20 days before that and often in between doing the rain sweeps up I've been out there for $370.00 days on exercise in the 3 years often more than a year or next on deployed on the Prairie which. Is sort of told me that up front Well goodness that's a lot of times not see your family and friends and not have time off travelled for work around the world for 5 months I've been away from over a year and a half out of 34 months we have a place where that's gone on top of a hill like an oil rig you could be on the moon so describe the prairie's or grassy moon you know when you're out there you have got comms out of touch with the news often committed to what's going on it's very busy you're snatching 34 hours' sleep if you're in the ops team every day so there's really not much time to pay attention to what's going on back here and it's like you're somewhere completely different it's very interesting now where are you going next what's your next post in after leaving Canada volunteered to go off. The British effort in Ukraine and the reason I've done that is because it does tie into what we do here pretty directly so we are training troops here to go into NATO frontline in Europe. There is no doubt that Russia is a threat at the moment obviously the Russians all involved in Ukraine says lots of lessons learned there having seen the photographs environments very similar the steps are very similar to the prairie essentially softeners lots of transfer me taking better skills into Ukraine and me bringing lessons only Ukraine will be useful to my successor but as what will you miss about counter organise and also we've got time towards that question there is so much to aspects really I think on the Army side the team has fantastic they are so committed to our output it's not just the $220.00 permanent staff and their families of course it's not just because your people are matter and up a transit camp but we also got about 1600 people every year who were all but you know so who offered the privilege to command 4800 people with a balanced budget and that's been amazing and watching tanks and warriors an aircraft zoom around of guns and that's pretty cool that's all he joins us remember much better than typing somewhere and then on the other side the community is just well it's all through our own radio station been skiing loads down and met a great community down there Burns Night Dinners for instance we've been going on this has got to and I've been shooting ducks and clay targets and there's just so much to do travelling around America we've been all over Canada and into Montana and Wyoming all been to Hawaii just finishing with really going to states Alberta beef just unbeatable there's tons to most mainly the people of course but tons to miss your final message to the better staff and families what you do is really important for the nation troops who come here go from here to face or members as enemies and we need them to win and everything you do the support you give to your soldier if you're dependent here the soldiers themselves the permanent stall for Temporist off your commitment is just compelling and it makes a real difference so thank you for of thing you do so that was Colonel Marcus Evans there talking to Frank McCarthy in Canada but we've got time now for some Ariana Grande. And then. You. And then. You. Our own a drawing. A woman Good morning listening in Kabul you have got the correct. Age. Kid since. Anyway I. Want to.
