    Are there any records of practice jumps by the parachute regiment? I am trying to confirm if my grandfather was injured twice during the war and the second time being a parachute training accident

    Do not know about ww2 .but in more recent times(60's)onwards acting as DZ safety officer part of duty was to record all reported injuries and pass to RAF so one might assume they hold the records ,but I have no idea how you access them
