This page is dedicated to the serving, none serving, and active service personel of B COMPANY 4 PARA, thier families and other personel who have served along side us. It covers a period from October 1966 when D company 12/13 Para Salford, moved to the Drill Hall Oldham and became B company 4th Parachute Regiment in March 1966 as part of 44 Brigade and carries on to the present day at St. Helens Drill Hall as part of the Air Assault Brigade. The Drill Hall at Oldham is now derelict which brings to an end a fantastic history, lots of great memories will be buried on that spot of land. B company was based in Oldham from March 1966 to September 1999
