Today is National Sporting Heritage Day so let's look at a story of REME sporting heritage 👇

🪂 Parachutes have been used in warfare since WW1 and it was military parachutists that developed parachuting as a sport after WW2.

The REME Parachute Club was formed in 1966 by Captain Ian Macpherson, a pioneer of modern free fall parachuting. By 1981 they were regular winners of the Best Corps Team Trophy at the Armed Forces Parachute Championships.

Now called the Lightning Bolts Army Parachute Display Team, they regularly 'drop in' on parades, shows and other events.

📷 Craftsman Christopher Bardwell prepares for a jump over Germany from a De Havilland Rapide, November 1969.

This story was told in our REME Sports exhibition, 2020-21 (https://bit.ly/3Q7M9YZ). Though this exhibition ended, we have a range of objects on display relating to REME's sporting stories, including our most recent sporting acquisition: Jim Fox's vest from the 1976 Montreal Olympics.
