The Red Devils, formed in 1964, are the official parachute display team of the British Army and The Parachute Regiment. Today the team is 15 men strong, all of which are full time serving paratroopers, who return to combat duties when required during their posting with the team.
As professional skydivers, they perform over 350 tandem parachute descents, and 60 public displays each year in the UK and internationally, into charity, sporting, military and social events.
Here are 13 moments throughout the 70s, 80s and 90s their displays were seen in Portsmouth.
