Signal, and you can actually speak in public. That puts you in the top 5% of that Branch. You did get screwed over.

Like link 16 cool?

Yep, but more stick and pedal ( rudder) than the 16. Requires a little more attention flying amongst the trees and without the safety of a 10K foot runway to land.

I always tried to avoid jumping out of perfectly fine aircraft.
With my combat load, there was no jumping. I was just happy to fall out of the plane.
I was on the Corps ACP for almost 2 years because everyone else in G6 conveniently had excuses not to be.

Lots of USAF aircraft don't need 10k!
Most can inflight refuel!

Once I did JMPI on a 25 series enlisted who was jumping with the XVIII ABC Assault CP. Fricker was so loaded down I told him to prop his ALICE/satellite rig on the bench at Green Ramp and not move. I would JMPI around him. Felt so sorry for that young trooper.

He probably had 20-25 more lbs than I did. I jumped the Tampa Microwave and baseband all in one ruck.

St Mere Eglise drop zone. I am sure you heard of it while you were flying a desk at FORSCOM.

Every successful takeoff requires a successful landing. In the AFs case that means only using 7000 feet.

Meh we save brakes that way!

Another Army Staff Ride for the non-Combat Arms Sr Officers to feel like they have skin in the game. I have seen that before. I am sure you are a SME on Gettysburg (hours drive ).
