I’m a leg, so I’m not celebrating, but quite a few of my friends have graduated from the Basic Airborne Course at Ft. Benning, and some have served in a jump status in various units. Here’s what happens when a stick gets caught in a thermal updraft.

Been there… Easy enough to get out of, steer/slip the canopy and in most cases your good to go but who wants to shorten canopy time !?! It’s so quiet, you can see the lay of the land, and you can easily hear the voices of others while descending. Thanks, great memory refresher.

A College classmate was a ranger School grad, and had served in Company ‘O’ Arctic Rangers at Richardson, then an Airborne Unit at the same post after Ranger units were disbanded. He always told me had been a leg, just not a “straight” leg.
