The UK Armed Forces have today played a key part in His Majesty The King’s Principle Proclamation at St. James Palace in London.

Not many serve 42 years!

A huge part of the history of our Regt and he'll be missed when eventually he does retire.

What a fantastic way to finish...

In his last day in command BC F has led his Bty out onto Castle Park to fire a 42 gun salute to mark the #PlatinumJubile

Well played to all that took part 👏

Last week the 'Yellow Dog' was practising deployment methods on SPTA, this week it's drill on the parade square.

If you'd like to see them in action, join them this Thursday in Colchester's Castle Park.

Today's CO's PT was particularly special, as it was a final farewell to the outgoing CO, Lt Col J Baker RHA.

His father, who served in the Regt in the 60s, presented a small gift and the troops linned his route out of camp

Next week, the new CO arrives and we go on Regt'l Ex...

Follow up to the previous TheParachuteRegiment tweet, here is a photo of our team that finished second in the Army XC Champs yesterday. Outstanding effort and Capt Wild was also 3rd in the female category. Congrats to 5thRegtRA .F.C. (The Yorkshire Gunners) who took the top spot to cap a strong RA showing. 🆎🎉

It was an outstanding effort from the Bde teams. Capt Rosie Wild was also 3rd female. 💪🆎
