Walking on sunshine 

First Fusiliers get a taste for the high life 

Ten troops got stuck into a parachute foundation course at Netheravon as part of their adventurous training, which replicates the stresses faced on ops. 

LCpl Rom Singjali told Soldier that although it was nerve-racking at first, “once I was in the air and the chute opened, all the nerves faded away”. 

He added: “Landing was better than expected – I’d do this again.”
