A PHOTOGRAPH taken by a Colchester soldier has won an award.
Corporal Wayne Page, a member of 16 Air Assault Brigade, royal electrical and mechanical engineers, took the picture while on exercise in Thetford.
It was selected as the winner in the 'Everyday life on duty' category of the Forces Mutual 'Genuine Moments' competition.
It has appeared on the September page of the charity's 2017/18 calendar.
Cpl Page said: "I took the photo whilst I was on exercise at the Thetford Training Area in late November last year.
"I am absolutely amazed that I have won a prize for the ‘Every day life on duty’ category - I’ve never won a photography prize in my life!"
