...and now your having emotional issues?

I would have thought that you would have gotten over that decades ago, trying to claim PTSD over that little eposide?
The way in which a man accepts his fate and all the suffering it entails, the way in which he takes up his cross, gives him ample opportunity – even under the most difficult circumstances – to add a deeper meaning to his life.

I thought I was going to spend the rest of my life attempting PLFs off of that device. I'm not sure I ever performed a single proper, or recognizable, PLF once at that station. The cadre either got tired of seeing me slam into the ground or decided that I must've been immune to the effects of gravity & passed me along.

ZoneIV was not only a recyle, but an officer as well? Sustain the vote to ban. :P

My entire stick, from Private to Lieutenant, was recycled in Tower Week . When the officers in the stick explained this at our new training company it caused a little bit of a stir. Amazingly, my second week at the Tower Branch went without so much as a good smoking.

Nawh....the only jumps I have are the ones I did in RS (5 or 6)... :roll: Why didn't you throw in a "fucking leg" comment while you were at it??? :shock:
OK, so I'm confused, you didn't graduate Jump School, but you did 5-6 jumps in Ranger School?
