Thanks for your service and is it true that Riggers once threw a monkey out of C-130 in a T-10 chute?

I heard that 5th SFG did it in Viet-Nam. Think it was discussed in Robin Moore's book, The Green Berets. Supposidly, the monkey was killed because it tried to climb up the suspension lines.

So that's where it started. I originally heard the story from a Rigger in my RIP class back in '79.....
