The Band of The Brigade of Gurkhas has made history at Exercise Cambrian Patrol 2026, becoming the first military band in the British Armed Forces – and quite possibly worldwide – to take on this elite 65km, 48‑hour patrol competition across the brutal Brecon Beacons.⁠
⁠
Facing section attacks, river crossings, CBRN, casualty drills, reconnaissance, IED awareness and mine clearance, all while carrying 35–40kg, the Gurkha Band team delivered an outstanding performance and earned the coveted Silver Medal.⁠
⁠
An incredible achievement, especially alongside their already demanding Band commitments. Their teamwork, discipline, resilience and determination shone throughout one of the world’s toughest military challenges.⁠

The celebration was a fantastic opportunity to strengthen friendships, honour traditions and come together as one regimental family.
