Story
<p>If you are looking at this page there is a good chance that you know me. If not, I served with the Parachute Regiment from 1988 - 2001 as a member of <a title="3 Para" href="http://www.army.mod.uk/infantry/regiments/4631.aspx">3 Para</a> and the <a title="Red Devils" href="http://www.reddevilsonline.com">Red Devils</a>. Back then I was known as Karl 'Kenny' Everitt.</p>
<p>As I am getting on a bit now, the trousers are getting a bit tighter with the belly getting a bit bigger, I have decided to run the <a title="Bath Half Marathon" href="http://www.bathhalf.co.uk">Bath Half Marathon</a> on 11 March 2012. While I am running it I may as well try and raise a few bob for a worthwhile cause that is quite close to home for many of you.</p>
<p>The <a title="Parachute Regiment Charity" href="http://paracharity.org/">Parachute Regiment Charity</a> was established to support soldiers of the Parachute Regiment and other Airborne Forces and their families.</p>
<p>Their objectives are:</p>
<p>(1) the promotion of efficiency of The Parachute Regiment;<br>(2) the relief of need, hardship and distress amongst past and present members of The Parachute Regiment and their dependents<br>(3) the promotion and maintenance of the heritage of The Parachute Regiment.</p>
<p>So, for those of you with short arms and long pockets please dig deep. It will be appreciated by those that really need it.</p>
