Exercise CAMBRIAN PATROL is the premier patrolling event of the British Army
which is held in Wales and hosted by 160 (W) Brigade.
For 2010 it will
run from 8 October until 17 October.
The exercise is held in Wales
and is organised by HQ 160 (W) Brigade on behalf of HQ 5 Div, as directed by HQ
Land in the Land Command Plan. Cambrian Patrol is arduous and concentrates on
leadership, teamwork, physical fitness and achieving the mission. It also draws
participants from foreign countries. The Cambrian Patrol is an exercise and not
a competition. It is conducted for the benefit of units and there is no final
order of merit. The exercise is designed to be within the capability of any
well-led and well-trained patrol from any Arm or Service. The exercise is the
same for Regular and Reserve Forces patrols.
