PHANTOM 5 |
THE PHANTOM 5 The 5th Battalion The Parachute Regiment
Introduction.
Since the Gulf war ended (sort of) more and more civilian
contractors have been called upon to fill the security void not covered
by the Coalition forces. One of the largest groups in Iraq comes from
retired British Parachute Regiment and Airborne Forces personnel. This
page is for them to show their involvement by sending in photos and
comments. All photos will be treated to cover the identities of the
people. All we ask is a first name, your Para unit and the Company you
work for although the last can be missed out if its too sensitive.
Please put your own captions on the photos.
The heading has been taken from one of the nick names
being used for the guys. They have been called 5 Para, The Fifth
battalion, The Phantom battalion and Phantom 5 respectively as a joke by
the serving members however it is no longer a joke with so many serving
out there, upholding the highest Airborne traditions and professionalism
and doing what the British Airborne do best which is soldering. Send you
photos to Nick the web master with any special instructions IE blocks
across the eyes or no blocks, number plates blacked out, etc

The video attached is a little bit of my history with Blackwater. The "Little Birds" are re-supplying us with Ammo. We were reportedly surrounded by 4000 Mahdi militia at the time the video was taken. |
