History Past History The club really starts its beginnings as the FOC (Fellowship of Old Comrades) which dates back to the 90’s.
In 2006, the club took a new direction under the Chairmanship of David (Smokey) Smith. Smokey addressed a number of fundamental issues with the running of the club and a new committee was proposed and voted in. During Smokey’s tenure the club began to focus on the support of serving ex-serving members of The Parachute Regiment and Airborne Forces.

Do you know a Veteran of The Parachute Regiment or Airborne Forces who would benefit from this? Contact your local Branch Secretary now.

ONLY 43 PLACES LEFT OF THE ALLOCATED 110 FOR THIS YEARS PARADE. REGISTER NOW. PLEASE SEE DETAILS BELOW

22.00 hrs to-night ///////////////////////////

yes i like the British parachute regiment and i like to support the headquarters of the parachute regimental association .

Well like all good bodies, there is usually a small, strong, reliable engine that keeps the engine driving, the wheels turning, and the whole bloody thing pulling together, in the same direction.



BLOODY WELL DONE SANDY

Well done Sandy this is a great idea and a great way to contact other vets. Looking forward to the future with the PRA facebook on board.

Top draw like a lot of the lads its nice to see something more accessible than waiting for the post,and a tribute to Sandy and the team who are always there to help at any time with no questions no matter how trivial,just as Jean used to at the old PRI shop in the shot.

The marvellous regiment, silver wings from the sky, defending The queen and her Kingdom, our freedom world. God Bless our soldiers!!!

Thanks to The Parachute Regimental Association - Regimental Headquarters for requesting me to be an Admin to their Commonwealth Groups Australia and New Zealand PRA. I will do my best to assist where I can.

Paul Harling here.....secretary of the East Lancs. PRA...we don't have a facebook set up for east lancs, but this is a great site to enquire.

Now a long way away from the UK in the RSA in the mountains.Good to read all about the Regt 22979232 Sgt Buchan ex 1para D Coy Depot and Boys company Direct enlistment 14 Platoon 1953.Any old mates out there.?Denis but Charlie Nickname.EVEN BUTCH TO SOME.

Having kept out of touch for many years, some of them "off the radar"; it is good to see the new HQ and PRA Museum. Members new need to see the deeds of those who went before and this indeed helps to instil the Esprit de Corps necessary of such a unit. Those involved should be proud of this achievement, I know that the good work will continue in the irrepressible tradition of The Regiment.

Utrinque Paratus ad infinitum.

Awesome

A step forward ! ... Well done.
