UNIFIL's Sector West element recently took part in Exercise 'Steel Storm', an inter-contingent capabilities display. Each
contingent taking part in the demonstration was exercised in their respective fire-support procedures in both mount-
ed and dismounted weapons systems. the FinnIrish battalion was among those taking part. Although the exercise
is not a competition per se, it did present an opportunity for the contingents to 'flex their muscles' in front of Sector
West Commander brigadier General Stefano Del Col who oversaw proceedings from a viewing stand to the rear. the
exercise i/c was Lt John Ryan, S7 (training), 47 Inf Gp.
