Story
On Wednesday 31 May 2017, 8 Trg Bn REME will attempt to break the
current World Record for the most Tandem Parachute jumps (403) in 24 hours at Netheravon airfield, Wiltshire. Our target is to have at least 456 jumpers, each participant representing a British Soldier who died during the Afghanistan Campaign whilst serving his or her country.
The event is being organised by 8 Trg Bn REME, an army unit based in
Lyneham. The aim is to raise money for the Army Benevolent Fund - The Soldiers' Charity: For soldiers, for their families, for life.
Each person taking part will be required to raise at least £350 to jump
for free or you can make the difference up on the day. The 3 individuals who raise the most money will have the option to do their Tandem jump with a member of the elite 'Red Devils'!
This will also be one of my Bucket List achievements
