Maroon Memorial

Posted on

On 10 October, the Maroon Memorial team started their 1,100 mile cycle from Bosnia to the UK which they completed in just over a week.

The team, made up of serving Paratroopers from 3 PARA and the 82nd Airborne Division, cycled the distance to raise money in memory of their colleague, LCpl Will Plant, who sadly passed away earlier this year.

Their route saw them pass through 7 countries, over some of Europe’s most arduous terrain, including the Austrian Alps. This cross country challenge is a far cry from the challenges they usually face in the sky!
