The Squadron recognises that our effectiveness on exercises and operations depends on the continued support of partners, families and loved ones. The welfare of soldiers' families and partners is important, so a range of assistance is available to you.
Within the Squadron:
We hold information evenings for partners and families prior to deployments and also have family nights during longer deployments. Where possible, we try to ensure soldiers on deployment have regular access to a telephone to call home. We also produce family newsletters (Rooster News) for longer deployments. Previous editions of Rooster News are available below.
