Commanding officer of 3 Royal Anglian, Lt Col Wolfe, said: This has given the soldiers the opportunity to work with the equipment so that, if called upon, they will be ready for the challenge.

The Army is already supporting the Department of Health and Social Care during the Covid-19 pandemic and will stand ready this winter to support the Environment Agency should the need arise.
