Sennelager, Germany - (From left) 2nd Lt. Margaret Dean, Charlie Company, 3rd Battalion, 172nd Infantry Regiment (Mountain), 54th Troop Command, New Hampshire Army National Guard, stands by her radio operator, 2nd Lt. Taylor Grundy, platoon signaller, 4th Battalion, The Royal Yorkshire Regiment, as she reiterates mission details before her platoon moved to begin their attack on the enemy platoon during a training exercise as part of exercise RHINO HEART at Normandy Barracks, Sennelager, Germany on June 18, 2024. Grundy was assigned to be the sole communicator for Dean on the radio for communications, which means he stayed on her side during training and managed to relay information and messages to and from other operators on behalf of Dean. “Being Lt. Dean's radio operator meant I was always right by her side,” said Grundy. “This was good as not only did it allow me to provide some translation of tactics and language, but it also gave me an insight into how an American platoon operates compared to a British one.” He added, “Working with the NH troops was an absolute pleasure.”
