THE Guyana Defence Force Training Corps has formally bid farewell to three Brazillian jungle instructors who have successfully completed their one-year assignment at the Colonel Robert Mitchell Jungle and Amphibian Training School (CRMJATS) situated in Makouria.

Captain Diego Roz Marcilio, First Sergeants Itamar Krause and Rodrigo Lopes De Almeida are the departing personnel.

Approximately 800 ranks have benefited from their tutelage in general jungle warfare training conducted at CRMJATS.

The instructors were also critical to the success of the Jungle Operations phase of EXERCISE TRADEWINDS which was held in Guyana in July 2023.

While on their stint here, the Brazillian team was also dynamic in instructing Portuguese at the Brazillian Institute.

The Officer and ranks of the Guyana Defence Force are appreciative for the service of the Brazillians which is made possible though bilateral relations between the two forces. As part of that arrangement, Brazillian teams are rotated on a yearly basis.
