The @RNParaDisplay team will be performing a jump onto @HMSQNLZ berthed on Princess Royal Jetty, HMNB Portsmouth tomorrow.
The display will consist of 3 parachutists jumping from a light aircraft, identified by smoke flares.

Huge thanks to @HMS_Collingwood for hosting an excellent Open Day this weekend on Armed Forces Day. A fiercely contested #brickwoods #fieldgun competition brought the drama (BZ to @BritishArmy REME for the win). And to cap it all, I was even saluted by a unicorn. ๐ฆ ๐ซก โ๏ธ
