British Army Judges Ready For 3 PARA's Big Fight

Amid the countdown to tonight's boxing clash between 3 PARA and the American 82nd Airborne Division, two British Army senior judges have flown out to officiate alongside their American counterparts.
 
They spoke to Forces TV's Jon Knighton and told him they'll be embracing new rules which have recently been introduced.
 
But the event will be one that holds mixed feelings for the outgoing Commanding Officer of 3 PARA. 
 
Lt Colonel Mike Shervington will hand over command to his successor in North Carolina this evening.
