The Commander of the Burapha Task Force, Major General Benjaphon Dechatiwong Na Ayudhya, has led a formal inspection of the combat readiness of an armoured infantry unit stationed near the Thai-Cambodian border in Sa Kaeo province.

The inspection took place in Ban Nong Sang, Nong Sang Subdistrict, Aranyaprathet District, where the Special Task Force Battalion (Infantry Battalion 12, 2nd Regiment, Queen’s Guard) is stationed. The review focused particularly on troop discipline, morale and the readiness of armoured personnel carriers and support equipment.

As part of standard operating procedures, this readiness assessment ensures that the unit can swiftly and efficiently carry out any mission assigned by higher command.

Major General Benjaphon, who also commands the 2nd Infantry Division, Queen’s Guard, emphasised the importance of maintaining discipline and professionalism among all personnel. He urged troops to uphold a strong image and reputation, not only in operational effectiveness but also in their interaction with civilians in the area.

He further encouraged officers and NCOs to take care of their subordinates and foster leadership at every level, aiming to build morale and ensure that all units remain combat-ready at all times.

This show of military preparedness is part of ongoing efforts to maintain stability along Thailand’s eastern frontier, with troops standing by to protect national sovereignty and respond to any security developments.
