[QUOTE="DaveyA, post: 42256, member: 624"] Hello all, I am trying to find out information on the location and particulars of the Parachute Regiment Depot and School circa 1942. My Grandfather - Gunner 1577134 Frederick Langmaid remustered from the Royal Artilery 501 Bty, 72 Searchlight Reg to the Parachute Regiment. He was killed in the UK on 31 Oct 1942,in I believe, a Para training exercise. His death was registered in Barton, Lancs and he is buried in his home town of Harwarden, Flintshire, Wales. I would be grateful for any info on the rigours that my Grandfather would have undertaken at the Parachute Regiment Dept and School and where it would have been located. Plus any other info that anyone may deem interesting. I am also in the process of obtaining his service records from the Army. Many thanks in anticipation. [/QUOTE]
