If you are or were in a SEAL unit, then you were on Airborne status in an Airborne unit.

All Special Ops units are on jump status.

I haven't, but my Dad was 173rd Airborne in Vietnam. Made jumps into combat. Passed away 3 years ago. Still proud of him.

Good buddy of mine used to be a SF HALO jumper out of Fort Carson. I can't remember what unit. Now he's a trainer in the private sector.

ETA: If someone is familiar with the different SF units at Fort Carson, I may recognize it.

Been there done that in the 1980's.
My company commander was heavy in the airborne and I was stupid enough to volunteer.

You were on jump status with a USMC unit and have less than 20 static line jumps, that's great. Sounds like fun.

What is the "2500+" number for? Do you have over 2500 jumps while on jump status with the USMC?

MsandLa wonders if scruffy ever served. Did scruffy ever make his first jump?

I am fat now but was not then. I never made a jump

Scruffy jumped just now. It's not hard. You just push down against the planet.

Sometimes y'all make Scruffy sad.
