The British Army needs to ‘raise its game’ in case it is forced to tackle Russia threat ‘head-on.’
Soldiers have been encouraged to speak with loved ones about the fact they could be deployed to support Ukraine.
Warrant Officer Paul Carney said the British Army is ‘shaping itself to meet the threat from Russia and was ready to counter any aggression’.
WO1 Carney wrote in Soldier magazine: ‘I want us all to check we are physically fit for operations. And it is also important we prepare loved ones and families, who often have the hardest role in our absence.’

WO1 Carney – the Army’s highest ranked Warrant Officer – wrote in Soldier magazine: “I want us all to check we are physically fit for operations. And it is also important we prepare loved ones and families, who often have the hardest role in our absence.
“My ask is that you have discussions about a potential deployment with them now. Find the numbers for the support networks and the relevant people who can help them, such as the unit welfare officer and padre.
“This is key as we could be out of contact for extended periods on tour. Making sure our loved ones have the support they need is vital for us too, as we’re not going to give 100% on tour if we are worried about home.”
