21 Engineer Regiment exercised their Freedom of Ripon and celebrated their 76th anniversary, 10-11 May 25.
This was a perfect opportunity to strengthen ties with the City of Ripon, display our capabilities and host local dignitaries with a Beating of the Retreat event.
29 Fd Sqn conducted a driver training concentration in Catterick during May. The focus was on convoy drills, off road driving, self-recovery, maintenance, camouflage and concealment. Expertly organised by Sgt A and LCpl S, in pursuit of mastering the fundamentals of our trade.

@21Engr hosted an unforgettable Regimental Boxing Night, demonstrating the underpinning warrior spirt we expect from our Soldiers. They fought with passion, flair, and self-discipline, showing humility in winning and graciousness in defeat.

🌊 Dive Deep, Train Hard! 💪
The @21Engr Dive Team has been hard at work on Exercise BEARS DEEP honing their skills in SABA and OSDS, mastering Broco cutting equipment and circular saws at depths of 24m. Great work! ☀️

21 Engr Regt Dive Team has been hard at work on Ex Bears Deep in the stunning waters of Ullapool, Scotland!
Over the past few days, we've been refreshing our skills on SABA and OSDS, including the use of Broco cutting equipment and circular saws at depths of 24m.
Having the Dive Doctor and supporting Corps Divers on-site ensured we made the most of this valuable training opportunity.
Despite Scotland's unpredictable and challenging weather, we were fortunate to have clear skies, giving us perfect conditions to dive deep and train hard!
We also took the chance to bid farewell to Sgt Squires, who completed his final Army dive and will now be leaving the team and the forces. 🌊💪 #ExBearsDeep #21EngrRegt #DiveTeam #Scotland
Over the last 2 weeks, 90 Soldiers and Officers from 21 Engineer Regiment have completed a best-effort 2000m row as part of the Army's Indoor Rowing Championships. 🐻⚔️
