The dust cloud rises from an explosion on the training range during Exercise Prairie lightning. INCREDIBLE images, featured in a new book, have offered a unique insight into British Army training and weapons. The stunning pictures show an Apache helicopter firing a missile, two local Native American chiefs enjoy sitting in a Sioux at an Open Day and a hue dust cloud rising from an explosion on the training range. Other striking shots show crew posing alongside Canadian police after their helicopter helped locate a marijuana crop along the South Saskatchewan River in 1979, a Gazelle helicopter being dwarfed by spectacular mountain scenery and a FV101 Scorpion out on the prairie being over flown by a Gazelle. The remarkable photographs are showcased in former Ministry of Defence civil servant Guy Warner???s new book, British Army Training in Canada, which is published by Fonthill Media.
