In order to ensure that all 9th Battalion family members are kept in the loop with regular communication, we are updating/refreshing our contact list for all family members and close friends of 9th Parachute Regiment serviceman and veterans. Ideally we’d like to use email to contact everyone as it’s quicker, and keeps costs down. We will use the contact details to mail out information about the Annual Dinner, the Annual Pilgrimage to Normandy and any other news and events.
If you are a family member or close family friend and would like to be included, please email us (admin@9thparabattalion.com) and give us:
- Your name
- Your address
- Your phone number
- The member of the 9th to whom you are related, and how
That’ll help us ensure we have up to date records for everyone. If you know anyone not in this group, who has email etc, please pass on this message.
Thank you!

Looking for information on a family member Brain Robertson Browne. Any stories or memories shared would be amazing. He was “B” Company, 9th Parachute Battalion I hope this is the right place to post.
