 A Coy, 7th (L.I.) Para Bn, 6th Airborne division
Reenacting the Division during the 1942-1945 period of World War II, our goal is to bring to the public the historical aspect as well as the personal accounts of the men who sacrificed not only their youth but, in some cases, their lives.
During such events we try as best as we can to give the public not only an overall presentation, but a personal aspect on what it must have been like to be a member of the British Airborne during WWII.
As it is impossible to relay the actual experience of battle, all we can do is keep the memory of these sacrifices alive by passing the knowledge that we have gained to the general public.
