    Eternal respect to all of you. Earned my wings in 2008, gold in 2009. Scared every single jump, but did it.

      First semester of college with the ROTC, I wondered why all our cadences referenced the airborne rangers. After seeing stuff like this, I think I get it.

    In 1974....... I jumped with an 8mm movie camera which needed winding on the side and was only good for thirty seconds of filming......... man, I wish they had “go-pro” cameras back in my time.......

      Joe Trump thank you for serving. My grandfather was a paratrooper with the 82nd, 13th, and 11th airborne in ww2. He was in Korea and had a combat jump there, and after the war in the 50s he was the commanding officer of an airborne reconnaissance company in the 11th.

      We are a select group. Filled with humility and honor. We are no special who do special things. The fact is it stays with you. Whether you help another motorist or ride an ambulance or fight fires. It stays with you. You see each other at airports, county fairs or a supermarket. Airborne!

    That's a lot of air time compared to what I'm used to. Former F Co 52nd Infantry (Airborne) LRS, 2nd Brigade 82nd Airborne, 1st SFG (ABN) guy here. Most of my jumps were combat equipment, night, 800ft AGL, mass attack. I think the highest jumps I ever did were UH-60A and CH-47D proficiency or fun jumps. Favorite were Twin Otter with SF, small groups, no BS like in 82nd. Jumps in 82nd were the worst hands down.

    FT Benning 1964, 20th SF National Guard until my last jump. We jumped at 1000 ft I think. All our cadre were old Airborne vets. Everything looked the same. Had a 11th Airborne vet in charge of rigging section. Jimmy Cazer took great pride in packing parachutes. No malfunctions in 8 years. One of my good friends was combat vet 173rd , lot of good people.

    • @williambloschdminphd8801
      @williambloschdminphd8801 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      The manual says the rate of descent for T-10 is 18 ft/sec. The T-11 is only 16 ft/sec. Better for reducing training accidents but a horrible trade-off for combat. Hang time during a combat jump translates to more troops shot in the air.

      killertaco97, I was a 37F (began BCT in June, 2000). You'll enjoy it, I miss the hell out of it. I wish I knew who was still in. I would love to hear how everything is going in 4th Group right now. I'm interested to know who we have lost, or what has happened.
      Anyway, good luck brother, and like I said, you'll enjoy the hell out of PSYOP... It's a trip! AIT is outstanding! Take care, HOOAH!

      I am an Officer currently 13 months into the PSYOP pipeline. I am active duty so I had to serve 3-4 years first and apply when I was CPT(P). Then if your packet is accepted, you go to assessment and selection and try out for PSYOP. If you get picked up you start the training pipeline shortly thereafter. If you are in the reserves it is a different process entirely.

    The first thing after hitting the ground and releasing the harness was to take a much-needed leak after being strapped into all of that gear and crammed like a sardine in the aircraft for a few hours.🙄😁
