<p>The 4th Battalion Parachute Regiment will be participating in a sponsored 40 mile tab* of the South downs on May 7th 2011, all proceeds will be going to the Afghanistan Trust (<a href="http://www.afghanistantrust.org/">http://www.afghanistantrust.org/</a>)</p> <p>*A Tab is a tactical advance to battle carrying your personal fighting equipment including a bergan and weapon.&nbsp;</p> <p>This will probably be my swan song as a regular soldier after serving 24 years in the Parachute Regiment, and I'd like it to end on a high where every single mile means that bit more.</p> <p>The charity supports those individuals injured in the line of duty and through your generosity a difference can be made to their lives and of&nbsp;the families of the fallen.</p> <p>&nbsp;<em><strong>"Utrinque Paratus"</strong></em></p> <p><em>Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.</em></p> <p><em>Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure.
