I am sorry that I am only answering now, but I rarely sit home at weekends. Mil-smile01
What you can see in the pictures is a simple exchange of experiences that is carried out in international units. The British have one of the few regular armies in which the bayonet charge is still used on the battlefield (the last case I remember the Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders Regiment in Iraq in 2004) and they organized this "training". Similarly, Romanians organized demonstrations of their anti-aircraft equipment within the same unit, Poles organize shooting competitions, etc ...

As a curiosity, let me give you the fact that when creating assumptions for a new Polish rifle, British experience convinced the army to develop a bayonet for it (earlier, the resignation of bayonets was considered).
And what about of spade's fencing and throwing school? Does former Warshaw's Pact states remember it?

No 26 Squadron Bristol Belvedere HC.1, based at Khormaksar, Aden, delivers supplies and mail to a remote location in the mountainous Radfan area of the country.
The RAF Belvederes were involved in combat in Aden Emergency and Borneo (during the Indonesia–Malaysia confrontation).
Twenty-six Belvederes were built, entering service as the Belvedere HC Mark 1.
The Belvederes were originally designed for use with the Royal Navy but were later adapted to carry 18 fully equipped troops with a total load capacity of 6,000 lb. The aircraft could operate through only one engine in the event of an emergency. In that case, the remaining engine would automatically run up to double power to compensate.

A Sycamore HR.14 of 284 Squadron carries out an airborne patrol over mountains in the north-west of Cyprus, August 1957

The Bristol Type 171 Sycamore was an early helicopter developed and built by the helicopter division of the Bristol Aeroplane Company. The name refers to the seeds of the Sycamore tree, which fall with a rotating motion.


It has the distinction of being the first British helicopter to receive a certificate of airworthiness, as well as being the first British-designed helicopter to be introduced by and to serve with the Royal Air Force (RAF).


Typically, capable of seating up to three passengers, the type was often used as a transport for both passengers and cargo alike. In RAF service, the Sycamore was normally used in the search and rescue and casualty evacuation roles operations.


The type saw combat service with the RAF during the Cyprus Emergency where it provided air mobility to the security forces and the Aden Emergency, in addition to other operations. In December 1971, the last of the RAF's Sycamores were officially retired.
