- 7th_(Light_Infantry)_Parachute_Battalion abstract "The 7th (Light Infantry) Parachute Battalion was an airborne infantry battalion of the Parachute Regiment, which was formed by the British Army during the Second World War. The battalion was raised by the conversion of the 10th Battalion, Somerset Light Infantry to parachute duties. It was initially assigned to the 3rd Parachute Brigade, but moved to the 5th Parachute Brigade of the 6th Airborne Division soon afterwards.The battalion saw combat in the Normandy Landings on 6 June 1944, the Battle of the Bulge and the River Rhine crossing. After the war ended in Europe, the unit was sent to the Middle East to undertake operations against the Japanese Empire. However, the war ended just after the men had started jungle training. Moving by sea, the battalion took part in the reoccupation of Malaya and Singapore. Problems in Java resulted in the battalion being sent to Batavia (Jakarta) to control the unrest, until relieved by a Dutch force.The battalion then rejoined the 6th Airborne Division in Palestine. Post war army reductions saw the battalion amalgamate with the 17th Parachute Battalion, but remaining the 7th battalion. But further reductions eventually saw the battalion disbanded.".
