Parachute Regiment Freefall Team 'The Red Devils' displaying at the October 2015 Shuttleworth Trust air show
The Parachute Regiment Freefall Team 'The Red Devils' is the official parachute display team of both The Parachute Regiment (The Paras) and the British Army. The team's role is to promote both the Parachute Regiment and the British Army in support of recruitment - this is achieved by carrying out over 60 spectacular parachute displays at public events each year and by attracting positive publicity through the media. The team is currently made up of 12 serving soldiers from the The Parachute Regiment's three full-time Battalions: 1, 2 & 3 PARA. Every member of the team has served a minimum of three years in a The Parachute Regiment Battalion and has taken part in at least one operational tour of duty in either: The Falkland Islands, Northern Ireland, Kosovo, Sierra Leone, Afghanistan and/or Iraq.
