T
he Military College's Infantry School has a long
standing association with the British Army's
Infantry Battle School (IBS). In 2018, the NCO
Training Wing (NCOTW) and the IBS deepened this re-
lationship with a number of exchanges and visits. Early
in the year, the British Army's then most senior enlisted
leader, Warrant Officer Class One Glenn Haughton, ad-
dressed the NCOTW's 35th Senior NCO Course. This was
followed in June by a visit by an IBS colour sergeant,
who joined up with the NCOTW for a week as a guest
instructor. That particular week was chosen because
the students of the 10th All Arms Standard NCO Course
were deployed on a week-long field training exercise
with the students of the 5th Potential NCO Course, al-
lowing their guest to see two career courses in training.
