Story

We are Force Atlantic the first official British Army team to complete the Talisker Whisky Atlantic Challenge 2019/20. Consisting of three instructors and an 18yr old Kingsman (Private Soldier) we tackled the world’s toughest ocean row.  We demonstrated the incredible opportunity the Army’s College offers to some of the most disadvantaged teenagers in the country, and highlight the sheer quality of the young men and women graduating from the College as the Army’s future leaders. 

The Army Foundation College has a long and proud affiliation with ABF The Soldiers' Charity and we are raising money to support them.  They provide vital support to soldiers, veterans and their families in times of need. For Soldiers. For Life.
