View Profile

The Army Ranger Wing (ARW), Ireland's Elite Special Forces, will celebrate their 30th anniversary on the 18th of March 2010.

To mark the occasion, the ARW will host a Press event in the Curragh Camp.

The event will offer a rare opportunity to meet members of the unit, see Special Forces equipment and witness demonstrations of the ARW in action.

The demonstration will provide excellent photographic opportunities, and will feature displays of anti-terrorist assaults, parachuting, specialist weapons and equipment.
