Annual Training Camp 11th & 12th February 12
Our annual winter training camp was held at the Red Tower in Mellieha. It was quite an intensive weekend, this year having as our distinguished guest Daniel Sammut (ex Royal Marines), who lectured us on Reconnaissance Patrol, Fire and Movement and Mapwork. Notwithstanding the cold and wet weather we still managed to go out on the field to put to the test our weapons and tactical skills.

Mapwork Exercise 3rd March 12
Following what we learnt during our winter training camp it was agreed that a mapwork exercise was to be held. The venue, Ghajn Tuffieha, was set and our Bombardier was appointed to co-ordinate and plan the whole exercise which proved to be quite intense but rewarding, also since being an ex British Army training zone, the area was littered with military importance. This was the first time that such an event of this kind was organised and all those who participated got a better understanding of the subject.

George Cross Ceremony 15th April 12
On the occasion of the 70th Anniversary of the award of the George Cross by King George VI himself to the people of Malta, our group was once again honoured to provide a guard of honour to the George Cross itself throughout the event. This year's ceremony marked an important milestone in our Island's history as this was attended by a number of dignitaries including H.R.H. the Duke of Glouchester, H.E. The President of Malta and the Hon. Prime Minister of Malta who all gave moving speeches about the importance of what the George Cross represents.
