Huge thank you to Izy at Indigo Zulu Ink for this stunning artwork celebrating our 20th Anniversary. We could not be happier with it.

Really pleased to share this drawing - a chart piece created especially for this year’s JFC Naples Field Gun Crew.

The brief was to combine an old Naples chart with the colours of Italy and the image is of a previous JFC Naples Crew.

I’m really grateful for their support and wish them all the very best in the upcoming Royal Navy & Royal Marines Charity Field Gun Competition in July.

What a night!

A huge thank you to everyone who came out and made our Eurovision Song Contest Party night at JFC Naples such an unforgettable event. The atmosphere was electric from start to finish, and it was incredible to see so many people singing, laughing, dancing, and celebrating together.

Massive appreciation goes to our amazing JFC Naples Field Gun Crew for all the hard work behind the scenes to make the night such a success. Your dedication and teamwork made it all happen.

A special shoutout to Les Par Hazard for an incredible live performance that kept the party going all night long.

And of course, a big thank you to Dante's Mexican Grill for serving up the tastiest food around, the perfect fuel for a Eurovision party.

Thank you all once again for the support, the energy, and the memories. We can’t wait to do it all again next year!

This is a huge milestone for our crew, and we’d love to see as many people there as possible to cheer us on and be part of the celebrations.

Early Bird Tickets are available now, so grab yours before they’re gone.

Bring your family and friends for a fantastic day full of naval tradition, displays, entertainment, and of course the excitement of Field Gun competition action.

JFC Naples Field Gun needs you 🇬🇧

We are building the crew for this year’s competition and we want more UK personnel in the team.

This is one of the best events you can be part of. It tests fitness, teamwork and resilience. You will train hard, compete hard and represent JFC Naples back in the UK.

What you need to know:

• Training is running now and we will try to fit around the exercise period
• It will ramp up properly straight after
• Fully supported at senior level across the HQ (see pic)
• We deploy to the UK on 26 June
• Competition final is Saturday 4 July
• This is the 20th year of JFC Naples Field Gun

We are aiming to go back and retain our silverware. You will be part of that effort.

No experience needed. Just turn up, commit and give it a go.

If you want a challenge and something different from the day job, this is it.

Interested? Drop us a message and we will talk you through it.

Be part of a strong team. Our motto - 18 as 1

What an incredible day at the Legionnaires Challenge last Friday!

We had a fantastic turnout, with loads of participants stepping up to take on the HYROX-style event and really push themselves. The sun was shining, the music was pumping, and the bar was open for those who fancied a well-earned chill afterwards, the perfect atmosphere all round.

A huge congratulations to our quickest male and female winners.
We’ll be reaching out to you soon to arrange your prizes.
