fighting/occupying/invading/training whatever

in the country, doing something

 

[Singth]

Afghanistan
Iraq
Northern Ireland
Sierra Leone
Belize
USA
Canada
Australia
Germany
Cyprus
Saudi Arabia
Oman

Some we are fighting in, some we are training in and some we have bases in. Bet they're not the twelve you have though.

Then there is the UN deployments too. We're in quite a few countries in one capacity or another so most of those on my first list are probably wrong. Some more I can think of are:

Falkland Is.
Kosovo
Georgia
Ascension Is.
Gibraltar

 

[Macky]

Kosovo
the Malvinas
