About ‘You can’t do much training here; it is all bloody jungle’ with Mike Tickner
Join Lieutenant Colonel Mike Tickner, a retired Army officer who has served in Northern Ireland, Bosnia, Kosovo, Iraq, Afghanistan and Somali , on 13 June 2025, as he explores the remarkable training methods that led the Indian Army to victory in the Second World War. The Indian Army had become a world class and war winning organisation, however, this evolution had been hard won. Tough and demanding training was essential to this transformation.
There is an option of tea, coffee and lecture with Q&A plus the bhat lunch (£40), or just stay for tea, coffee and lecture with Q&A with no bhat lunch (£15).
Tickets: £15 - £40
