RE High Risk Search Bullet Proof Whisky Glass

*** PLEASE NOTE UNFORTUNATELY THIS ITEM CAN ONLY BE SHIPPED WITHIN THE UK ***

“Bullet in a Whisky Glass” – with a Quality Sandblasted image of a Royal Engineers High Risk Search Qualification Badge etched into the Glass.

This Glass is for anyone who has Passed the Royal Engineers High Risk Search Course and thus Qualified as a Search Specialist.

The oval-shaped badge in white engraving, inspired by the original full colour badge, is emblazoned with the word ‘SEARCH’, with a design of an eye and flame above it, to represent the nature of the Search Teams’ work

It was created in 2011 to pay tribute to the brave Service personnel of the High Assurance Search Teams who search for and isolate improvised explosive devices (IEDs) in Afghanistan.

Royal Engineers have carried out High Risk Search for many years prior to this mainly in Northern Ireland but the Skill has been used on mainland UK as well as many Operational Tours Worldwide.

“The Commanding Officer of 8 Force Engineer Brigade, Brigadier Alistair Dickinson”, said:

“This badge recognises the work of the High Assurance Search Teams and their advisors. To do this all day, every day, for six months demands a certain kind of mettle – a persistent courage. And it is right that their commitment to this dangerous work is recognised.”
