They repaired engines in mud, jungle heat, desert sand and freezing conditions.

Without them, missions simply could not happen.

What does Peacekeeping involve? 🎖️

Peacekeeping involves the deployment of international personnel; often under organisations like the United Nations; to help maintain or restore peace in conflict-affected areas.

Their role can include monitoring ceasefires, protecting civilians, supporting humanitarian aid, and helping communities rebuild after conflict.

Peacekeepers act as neutral forces, working to prevent further violence and create conditions for long-term stability
