Falklands, 42nd
Op HERRICK 4, 18th
Op HERRICK 8, 16th
Op HERRICK 13, 14th

We remember all those that paid the ultimate price.

The events page on the website is as up to date as it can be at the moment so please take a look and try and attend something this year to support the association.

The newly formatted newsletter has been designed to match the website. With the Pegasus Journal now only being produced only once a year, it provides a platform for branches to showcase what they have been involved in on a monthly basis.

If you are the organiser of any event or involved in any way, please let us know. If you have anything you would like to advertise, please send the full details to us and we can help advertise and place them on our social media platforms.

The PRA is the official Association of the Parachute Regiment and Airborne Forces. Its continued success is down to the members. Please get in touch with your nearest Branch and maybe take an Airborne friend along. Meetings are normally informal, depending on the occasion. They would be very pleased to see you and you will meet old friends and make new ones in the process.
