Description

Dive into a riotous romp through the wild world of British airborne soldiers in this unapologetically politically incorrect collection of 190 true stories.

Gathered from the memories of former Paras and other airborne forces, this book is a celebration of the wonderfully warped sense of humour that emerged from the madness of military life in the 1950s and 60s.

Expect tales that are sick, twisted, and downright rude—perfectly reflecting the mental and physical fortitude required of these brave men. You’ll find yourself in stitches as you relive the harrowing and hilarious memories of the notorious ‘P’ Company selection course, where only the toughest survive to don the coveted red beret.

From the heart-stopping thrills of jumping out of aircraft to the outrageous practical jokes that kept spirits high, this collection captures the essence of airborne antics both on and off duty.

Get ready to chuckle, cringe, and cheer as you uncover the wild escapades of those who dared to leap into the sky and lived to tell the tale. It’s a book that guarantees laughter, camaraderie, and a glimpse into the wonderfully chaotic life of a ‘Para’.
