Raider Magazine Vol 6 Iss 9 Back Issue

Tis the season to be jolly!

One thing you always find working in the magazine industry is that you work months and months in advance. At the time of writing this issue it’s only just hit November, we’ve just been hit by a so called ‘Hurricane’ and it’s still pretty sunny! However by the time this goes to print it’ll be coming up to the Christmas period, snow will be falling and the Christmas cheer will be in full affect!

With that in mind, this month we’ve tried to bring you a few festive features that will not only help you with that last minute Christmas shopping, but also hopefully put a few smiles on your face, whether you be at home, on barracks or on tour with your unit… With that in mind I hope you’ll join me in raising a glass on Christmas Day to all those who are out in theatre.

But back to the magazine, and boy do we have some interesting stuff for you this month! To start with we all know buying Christmas presents can be a chore at times, so why not take a look at our special ‘Stocking Fillers’ Tried & Tested, where we’ll be showcasing what’s on our Christmas list this year over three double page spreads! On top of that Bill takes a look at how to survive the treacherous Christmas period, and we have an On Patrol with a bit of a twist, both should supply a few laughs!

We also get a look at Arktis in Profiled! who have started to put together their own range of camouflages and to tie in with this we get talking to Ben from CROPS; someone who helped design one of Arktis’ new patterns!

All that’s left to do now is wish all our readers and service personnel a Merry Christmas and a happy New Year!
