EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a Merlin Mk3 helicopter, belonging to the Commando Helicopter Force (CHF) from 846 Naval Air Squadron, as it braves heavy snowfall in Norway. The helicopter is seen arriving back at the Royal Norwegian Air Force Base Bardufoss after completing an Arctic flying training sortie. Royal Navy personnel from CHF have been actively engaged in Arctic flying and ground training in Norway. Situated deep within the Arctic Circle, at the Joint Helicopter Command (JHC) training facility near Bardufoss, this base known as Clockwork provides essential survival and operational training for aviation capable units. It equips them with the necessary skills to survive, operate, and fight effectively in extreme cold weather environments. For over four decades, JHC Clockwork has served as a vital Arctic base for CHF. Its significance remains undiminished even today as it enables them to prepare for future operations and plays a crucial role in delivering littoral manoeuvre capabilities for the Royal Navy. The local area offers exceptional facilities and its unique geography perfectly complements their training requirements. The photograph was taken by POA (Phot) Mez Merrill from Armed Forces Photography Unit. It beautifully encapsulates both the harshness of winter conditions faced by military personnel during their arctic operations and showcases their unwavering determination to adapt and overcome challenges presented by such extreme environments.
