English: Pictured are members of 40 Commando on patrol in Belize.

Delta Company (D Coy), the Jungle Warfare Specialists of 40 Commando in the jungles of Belize conducting vital training under the watchful eye of BATSUB (British Army Training Support Unit Belize) staff known as Trackers, as well as Directing Staff from the Royal Marines. During the first phase of training the Royal Marines conduct break contact drills, close target reconnaissance, survival, patrol and navigation training in the depths of Sibun Gorge. The Trackers taught the elite Commandos all about operating in the jungle; providing instruction about survival, building shelters and animal traps, creating fire, and understanding what plants are edible, inedible and which are medicinal, as well as what insects and wildlife to avoid in this environment. When the eight Tracker instructors, who are locals of Belize, aren’t teaching Royal Marines, the British Army or the United States Marine Corps, they are maintaining the training area for the next group of troops. Live Fire Tactical Training (LFTT) was the second phase of training which saw the transition from individual CQB (Close Quarters Battle) to four and eight-man team assaults in another training area known as Manatee. During this phase, the troops were using the SA80 rifle, LMG (Light Machine Gun), GPMG (General Purpose Machine Gun) and grenades. They also learned how to employ demolitions in the jungle environment.
