The Chairman of Marks and Spencer, Robert Swannell, was visiting the museum, as a guest of The Parachute Regiment and Airborne Assault Trustees to thank him for the generous financial support that has been provided to ParaData in memory of Maj John Timothy MC** a brave officer, and long serving M&S employee.

Whilst at the museum he kindly unveiled a new display dedicated to Maj Timothy.

The miniatures (kindly donated by Toye, Kenning and Spencer) were framed with a photo of Maj Timothy and a biography of his career, and were presented by the CO of 4 PARA, Lt Col John Boyd, on behalf of the Airborne Assault Museum.
