PARAS 10 Vimy Barracks Catterick 9th Sept 2012
Folks just to let you know myself and my 17yr old son Alex are taking part in the PARAS 10 endurance march tomorrow. The event is now in its 5th year and is the same 10 mile endurance march Parachute Regiment recruits must complete as part of P Company. Entrants must complete the event in boots carrying a 35lb bergan. I did my P Company week in 1982 and I did the PARAS 10 last in 2009, I'm a bit older now so I don't think I'll be doing it in 1hr 42 like I did in '82
The photo above is from the 2009 event. You can check out details of the event here

All money raised goes to The Parachute Regiment charity which supports wounded soldiers and their families. A small way to thank the boys out in Helmand, all donations no matter how small gratefully received.
Thanks, Dougie

"No Easy Day" by Mark Owen
Got it yesterday, finished it today hard to put down 1st First hand account of Op. Neptune Spear in Abbotabad. Lots of online comments around the perceived security breaches, probably best to read it and decide. Some good kit photos, HK MP7 and 416 and the latest generation NVGs as well as a great set of plans of the target building complex. Time to get the foamboard out! Dougie

Falklands single figs
Warbases god bless 'em did the 25mm x 12.5mm bases I needed for the 10mm single Pendraken figs, this will allow casualty removal from my 8 man sections. As I've mentioned I'll be using the Falklands supplement for IABSM and in 10mm an 8 man section covers about 100mm in line abreast so should work well with the rules. Although I have a set of the original rules, I picked up a set of the new edition of the rules at Border Reiver this weekend, very nicely produced ! Dougie
