Commission: 2nd Battalion The Parachute Regiment

Commission: 2nd Battalion The Parachute Regiment
Location: Colchester Barracks, UK.

I never got round to posting this one once it came to print, but I spotted it whilst going through my image library earlier in the week looking for new content for the blog that I may have missed. This was an amazing environmental portrait photography shoot, photographing some of the top brass in the Parachute Regiment and a real honour to be able to do so.

The epic plane is a Douglas Dakota.

“The Second Battalion, Parachute Regiment (2 PARA), is a battalion-sized formation of the Parachute Regiment, part of the British Army, and subordinate unit within 16th Air Assault Brigade. 2 PARA is an airborne light infantry unit capable of a wide range of operational tasks, based at Merville Barracks, Colchester Garrison, England.
