Georgie Palmer arrived on the 14th of May to jump with the Red Devils. After ground school training with her instructor Cpl Dan Schmidt, Georgie took to the skies and enjoyed her 45 seconds of freefall from 13,000ft. Georgie was jumping for the charity ‘Support our Paras’ which supports injured members of the Parachute Regiment and their families coming back from operations around the world. Jumping with them was Sgt Stuart Pearson from the 3rd Battalion who lost his leg in Afghanistan.
