Sent forth to defend the realm, a team of Royal Air Force Engineers arrived in the Falkland Islands to complete a 6 month tour of duty. Siezing the oportunity to do their bit for good causes they looked around for a decent challenge.
"Those army types seem to enjoy this thing called 'tabbing' chaps shall we give it a go?"
Once we'd realised that to the Army this didn't mean smoking behind the block but marching at pace with a pack on your back we were set.
We'll be 'tabbing' (tactically advancing to battle) over a distance of 37 miles. Starting at Mount Pleasant Compound and finishing at Port Stanley. This will be a punishing challenge as we'll be up against the rugged, mountainous terrain and fickle Falkland Islands weather.
