I was 11M in the Army.
Got my EIB in 1996.

I am not Airborne qualified through the military but I have 5 Static Line and 67 freefall jumps through a regular drop zone in 1996-1997. I had a B License through the USPA.

Gave it up and sold my rig when I got out of the military because there wasn't a drop zone close enough to Lake Charles to make it worth the drive for me.

Physically? Barring injury, no.

Mentally? Yes.

We need the Air Assault vets to make a thread. I don't know anything about serving in an Air Assault unit.

Thanks for posting that news about the court martial of that rigger that sabotaged those Humvee loads.

It's not really a thread topic that lends itself to longevity on this site.


Oh really? The Wolfman bumped it. The thread is more than three years old and still going.

What? Whaaaat?

I'm gonna break the rules of your post here because I was a damn proud soldier in the 101st Airborne Division back at the tail end of 'Nam in 1974. No, I didn't jump out of a perfectly good airplane but I soldiered with many who did- and I admired them greatly. I, instead gave them electricity in the field. That was my Rendezvous With Destiny!

Damn I love SM with your skill set. I don't care what anybody says. If you ain't gotta suffer in the field, don't.
