And I've Jumped the following Parachutes:

Oh yeah, I forgot C-141, I got one while I was in Jump School. OOPS oh well.

And as far as the combat jump, good lord, that's a club I would be honored to be in, but to this point am honestly glad I'm not. But when/if my time comes, I'm so there.

AIRBORNE!!!
