EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative black-and-white photograph, Thai paratroop trainees can be seen diligently lining up to board the RAF Valetta aeroplane at RAF Sembawang in Singapore, during their paratroop training with the Royal Air Force in 1955. The trainees, dressed in their military uniforms and helmets, are focused and determined as they prepare for their jump. The Valetta, a versatile transport and military aircraft, looms large in the background, its propellers spinning steadily as it awaits the next group of trainees. The tranquil waters of the Singapore Strait can be seen in the distance, reflecting the calm before the storm of the paratroopers' exhilarating leap into the unknown. The scene exudes a sense of camaraderie and discipline, as the trainees rely on each other for support and safety in their collective endeavor to become skilled paratroopers. This photograph offers a unique glimpse into the past, capturing the intensity and excitement of Thai paratroop training during the 1950s, under the tutelage of the Royal Air Force in Singapore.
