Polar Preet conquers South Pole close to world record
British Army physio Polar Preet has smashed expectations by completing her expedition to the South Pole almost a week ahead of schedule.

Army’s mixed team of four set to row the Atlantic Ocean
Eat, sleep, row, repeat every two hours non-stop for 40 days: that’s what the British Army’s Force Atlantic 21 team will be asking of themselves as they endeavour to break the world record for a mixed team of four rowing 3000 miles across the Atlantic.
Adventurous Training Activities
The Army participates in a broad range of outdoor activities, which include canoeing/kayaking, caving, freefall parachuting, gliding, mountaineering, mountain biking, offshore sailing, paragliding, skiing, and sub-aqua diving.
