Did you see any of us out with a Poppy tray this week?

Some of our Squadron personnel have been out collecting for the Royal British Legion London Poppy Day.

Thank you to everyone who stopped, chatted, and dropped something in the tin.

Have you got your Poppy? We’d love to see them in the comments.

Your media skills. A different kind of challenge.

From exercises to operations, RAF Reserve Media Operations Officers help tell the Royal Air Force's story.

If you have experience in media, journalism or communications, your skills could have a place in the RAF Reserves.

Bring your civilian expertise. Develop new skills. Make an impact beyond your day job.

When RAF Media Reserves Cpl James isn't behind the camera, you can often find her out on the water.

After competing in the recent Interservices Surf Kayak championships earlier this month in Cornwall, she came away with wins in both the 'Best Female Surf Kayaker' and 'Best RAF Female Surf Kayaker' for the second year in a row!

Congratulations Cpl James! 🏆

Meet Graham. 👋

Last week, thanks to members of RAF Media Reserves, Graham got to walk back through the gates of RAF Benson for the first time in almost 70 years since he last served there.

He met serving personnel, saw how much the station has changed, and by all accounts had a lump in his throat more than once.

This is what being a Reservist is really about, not just the job, but being part of a community that looks after its own, past and present.

⁠Do you have your own connection to RAF Benson, or a moment like this that's stuck with you? Share it in the comments. 💙

Have you been to the cinema recently?

Before your next trip, why not catch up with our latest Inside Air, where Flt Lt Chris catches up with the meteorologists from the Mobile Met Unit to find out about their work, and the support they offer for operations and planning.

We also hear about arguably the most important forecast in history, retold in the recent release of Pressure, a film telling the story of the lead up to D-Day.

InsideAIR is a behind the wire view of the RAF, its people, technology and operations. Listen here or on your favourite podcast app.

On Assignment: Taking RAF Media Overseas

Cpl Ian and Cpl Hannah recently travelled to Romania to support a major international gathering of military reservists from across NATO and partner nations.

Working alongside international media teams, they covered symposiums, meetings and the Military Competition (MILCOMP) – showcasing the people and partnerships that strengthen the Alliance.

A fantastic opportunity to represent the RAF, work with NATO partners and put their specialist media skills to work internationally.

Have you ever wondered how civilian media and the military combine to provide effective training? 📸

This month, Media Reserves have been in Scotland supporting the RAF Mountain Rescue Service on a multi-agency crash exercise.

As well as helping to gather video and photographs of the exercise, aviators from 7644 Sqn drew on their civilian media experience to provide simpress injects, giving personnel experience of interacting with journalists.
