The Royal British Legion Shoulder to shoulder with all who Serve
Injured ex-Royal Marine skydives with Crown Prince of Dubai
05 January 2012
The sun was shining in Dubai for the 3rd Dubai
International Parachuting Championship and Gulf Cup 2011 in
December, where the Legion's Extreme Flight Team Jump4Heroes were
competing.
Jamie Fowler, a former Royal Marine who was seriously injured 24
years ago on a Royal Marines Demonstration Jump, was attending the
event as a guest of the Meet Director, and had the opportunity to
undertake his 80th tandem skydive since his accident.
Jamie, who has raised thousands for the Legion distributing poppies
in Constantine, Cornwall, made his tandem jump wearing a Legion
'shoulder to shoulder' t-shirt, and was accompanied by the Crown
Prince of Dubai, an enthusiastic patron of the sport.
