THE famous Red Devils are preparing to wow the crowds at this weekend's Three Counties Show.

The British Army's Parachute Regiment freefall display team will be showing off their skills tomorrow and Sunday, June 17.

Team commander Major Nick Visher said: "We are very pleased to be included at this year's event to help celebrate the 50th year."

Founded in 1964, the Red Devils carry out more than 100 spectacular parachute displays each year. Every member of the 25 man team is a serving paratrooper from the Army's elite Parachute Regiment, each having seen active service in either the Falklands, Northern Ireland, Kosovo, Sierra Leone, Afghanistan or Iraq.

The self-funded team also raise money for charity by carrying out tandem skydives with members of the public.

The Red Devils display at the Three Counties will take place at 2pm each day.
