Thanks for putting my song on you tube Edward, I wrote the song about 15 years ago, it's made a lot money and every penny has gone to Help our Para's and the PRA. thanks again
I served in the 82nd Airborne Division for 12 years, and I became an Aldershot Paratrooper over Fox Covert DZ in 93. I'm very proud of it. We stayed at Thorney Island. The good folks In Emsworth treated us like family. The soldiers at 10 Battery treated us like brothers. We stayed there a month. At the end of that month every lad there was dipping Copenhagen. What a grand time we had. It rained the day we got there, and they day we left. Sun the rest of the time. England felt like home to me immediately.
I’m sat with John again right now, we sat chatting about his song and his other song called Hero’s, We are just about to have another roast dinner. John expresses his thank’s for everyone’s kind and positive comment’s.
Listening to this song excites me even more to join the parachute regiment 🇬🇧 waiting for a date for PRAC but gutted as wont be till early next year due to covid-19 😤
Been there, done that....my airborne brothers forever....! My cousin Ronnie Balneaves of the airborne platoon of the Gordon Highlanders jumped into Suez....!

"They kicked me out of Fat Albert with a parachute on my back. The PTI said don't worry lad, if if don't work bring it back" 😂

My father was in the Pathfinders was proud of his beret and wings. I used to sit and listen to his tales of his time in the Para`s.

OMG being an ex Canadian para I really like this happy tune.
Earned my jumps wings in 1967
“The Royal Marines they stood and watched , they seemed so mystifiiiied.

We need more British war films again.

Saludos de un paracaidista argentino! El espíritu de los boinas rojas trasciende naciones! PARACAIDISTA SIEMPRE!
God and the British we all adore in times of trouble and not before !
My dad did his national service in the paras and stayed an extra 3 years. He loved it.
It is such a wonderful and catchy song. Lovable lyrics and feel good tune. Lovely sir. Hats off from a Fellow Paratrooper from India
Such a poignant song 🎵
