Happy St Barbara’s Day all! What a treat to have our Gunner In-Pensioners from @RHChelsea with us for our annual St Barbara’s Day service at Larkhill on Sunday. So good to catch up with them. @royalartillery1

A wonderful mark of respect and an opportunity for genuine reflection. @12regtra you were immaculate and @KingsTroopRHA flawless as ever. Our family together, as it was everywhere. Once a Gunner, Always a Gunner. @Royalartillery1, @ArmyInLondon #FindandStrike

On Day 11 of #RemembRAnce, Armistice Day, we wanted to share some photos from the very moving Ceremony of Remembrance yesterday at Hyde Park Corner. Bringing together the entire Gunner Family: Serving, Retired and their Families. We Will Remember Them. #FINDandSTRIKE

This Remembrance Sunday, @12regtra are parading at the RA Memorial at Hyde Park Corner for the Gunner Act of Remembrance. Their Commanding Officer, Lt Col Martin Wells RA, shares his own reflections on #RemembRAnce and what it means to the Gunner Family. #findandstrike


Well said Gnr Nero. I’ll see you on Parade 🫡 @12regtra @7AirDefence @ArmyInLondon @royalartillery1 #FindandStrike

As Remembrance Weekend beckons, on Day 8 of #RemembRAnce we hear again from Gunner Nero of @12regtra and the importance of this period to Commonwealth personnel and what it must have first been like to serve within the British Army. #findandstrike



What a privilege to be a guest in our ‘engine room’. The powerhouse, the nerve centre that propels our ‘ship’, that gives us the energy to keep moving forwards. Thank you, @rasm, for the chance to address the Sergeants’ Mess. @ArmySgtMajor @royalartillery1 #FindandStrike

The 2024 Central Mess Dinner Night took place at The WO and Sgts’ Central Mess, marking the first event for RA Sgt Maj Lightfoot. As part of this, the Hanson Cup was awarded to Sgt McCollum, a well-deserved recognition of her selfless commitment to the Gunners. #FINDandSTRIKE

The sunny weather in Larkhill this afternoon has us thinking back to the summer! It was a delight to join the Annual @CricketGunner vs @SapperCricket match in Chatham this year and to hear what the @Regt_Col_RA has to say about the importance of Army Sport. #FINDandSTRIKE


24 new young officers for the Gunners. A beautiful day was matched by an immaculate parade as they joined our family. A bumper crop - all way better than I was. Good luck to you all. Once a Gunner, Always a Gunner. @royalartillery1 @RMASandhurst #FindandStrike

‘Once a Gunner, Always a Gunner’ On the 12th June in France, overseen by the @Regt_Col_RA and RASM, soldiers from @26Regiment_RA buried two RA soldiers who fell in WWI. They were buried with full military honours - as befits their service and sacrifice. ‘We Will Remember Them’

A big day for the Gunners. I cannot recall a new Colours parade in 20 years.💪💥💥💥@ScottishGunners @1stRegiment_RHA @5regtra #FindandStrike

Last month saw the Royal Artillery formally bring in two new weapons systems: ARCHER and TAIPAN. The event was marked by a Colours Parade at Larkhill, with @1stRegiment_RHA, @ScottishGunners and 5th Regt RA on parade as the receiving regiments. #FINDandSTRIKE
