Members of the British Army have been stationed on Douglas prom today (Friday, May 15th), looking to set up a reserve unit on Island.
There hasn't been a facility of this kind in the Isle of Man for almost 50 years.
Officer Paul Corkill is from Maughold and has been in the army for 30 years.
He told Manx Radio one of the reasons he believes there should be a reserves unit on Island:
Passport applications moving online
The new system will be £13 cheaper than the current cost
Danadara loses landmark tax appeal
HMRC issued assessments totalling around £5.4 million
King Orry statue lights 'acceptable' to bats
The statue was approved following a planning appeal
Commissioner will not investigate legal aid complaint
Treasury has apologised and paid back legal bills
