WIREDGOV NEWSLETTER ARCHIVE

Holiday Break and Ski Team Sponsorship

The WGPlus editorial team is now signing off for its Christmas break with Seasonal Greetings to all our readers.  We're currently giving the newsletter a much needed re-vamp so look out for the new-look newsletter, the first of which will be published W/C: 13 January 2014.

In the meantime, we thought you’d be interested to know that, Wired-GOV is supporting the alpine ski racing team from 105th Regiment Royal Artillery, the Scottish and Ulster Gunners, by providing funding to help towards the purchasing of specialist alpine racing equipment.

105th Regiment RA (105RA) is a Reservist unit geographically spread across Scotland, Northern Ireland and the Shetland Island.  The Regiment is equipped with 105mm Light Guns, with trades including communications and logistics.  The Regiment has sent a number of Individual Augmentees to Afghanistan in support of Operation HERRICK and has a very high profile across Scotland and Northern Ireland, firing Royal Salutes and the famous “One o’clock Gun” at Edinburgh Castle.
