Percy Wing enlisted with The Royal Welch Fusiliers and then volunteered for the airborne forces.
He was parachute jump trained at RAF Ringway on Course 68. This course ran between 14 and 27 June 1943. Percy's instructor noted this about his performance on the course: "Backward at first but now above average. Good show"
