Summary[edit]

Description
English: Soldiers of 22 Engineer Regiment march proudly past cheering crowds during a parade through Andover, Hampshire.

To mark their return from Afghanistan, over 400 soldiers of 22 Engineer Regiment of the Corps of the Royal Engineers exercised their Freedom of the Borough of Test Valley by marching through Andover, Hampshire, on Saturday 12 October 2013.

The Royal Engineers or ‘Sappers’ have been busy this tour not only reinforcing existing British bases across Helmand Province but removing, closing and transferring bases across the province to Afghan control. This is a real indicator of progress, because as a base is closed or handed over and it shows that the Afghans are proving capable at sustaining their own operations.
