UK Air Component Commander made a tweet about donning protective gear to defeat Daesh...what brought that on?

If the threat dictates, our personnel will don Personal Protective Equipment and carry weapons. A lot of the PPE issued is maintained by our Survival Equipment Technicians 😎

Our teams operate in a safe, but swift manner. 👊Every role plays its part to #DefeatDaesh 🤝 pic.twitter.com/Mw55pTF0zT
