Legacy Conversations – 32 Battalion’s 1st White Troop – Peter Lipman

Peter M Lipman got called up to the Medical Corps, a place where he certainly did not wish to be and so he volunteered for 1 Parachute Battalion where he did his basics.

During jump selection, he developed a hernia (he qualified for his wings in 1980) and was sent to Loathla Battle School from where he volunteered for 32 Battalion, then virtually unknown and very hush-hush.

At 32 Battalion he joined the Recce Wing.

Peter had many adventures including being at the Battle of Savate where the Battalion suffered its most losses ever in one engagement.
