    The fear when on the first jump, the doors open and the sun light comes in and you going out that door soon. At Rochester Airport in the late 2000s, met 1SSF veteran who invented the feet and knee together. How? He was motion picture man and was filming the landings in 42 to find solution to broken legs.

    Was unfortunately denied airborne due to a shoulder surgery I had years ago. Still, was able to get infantry and pray I earn my way into receiving other tabs and pins as an 11Bravo when I ship out. I’ll do what I can to earn my wings if possible one day since thats been my dream. Best wishes to those who serve our nation and thank you. Can’t wait to join y’all.

    Enlisted, then maxed their tests, sent to OCS, three years later was a captain, then they noticed and they said and so I "volunteered" for airborne. Okay! Got in the tower, half-lidded my eyes, so it's 2-d not 3-d so the jump does not seem so bad. The actual jumps were #1 Scary, but jumped anyway. #2 Still scary but jumped. #3 not so scary. #4 Smooth. I could look around. #5 Looking forward to hearing the birds and the train whistles and seeing all the sights. Wish it were a longer drop. So that's why there is so many drops. You are afraid, then you're not afraid but leery, then you think it's okay, then you are looking forward to the next one. Then it was over. I was prefix5 nuclear weapons, so not to go to an airborne unit. But I do miss it. I became a colonel, and strategic planner, and know that the history of airborne is that they lose a lot of people and so almost everyone has to go to the school to become backups, because they can't get replacements overnight. Anyway, I am glad that I went and think that it is something that one should do, although I saw some "wash out' and know that we all cannot do everything. So try anyway. And all my best to all the new troops. Airborne!

    • @williamheyman5439
      @williamheyman5439 Před 2 měsíci +1

      @@bburn2000 The history of airborne operations is that they lose a lot of people, both to the hazardous nature of the jump, but also to the fact that they are always in a very vulnerable position when they land, and they do not have the tanks and artillery. I was a strategic planner and know that they send a whole bunch of people to airborne school because they expect large losses. And they cannot be replaced overnight because it is weeks of training. I was on the test team for the first air mobile unit to replace airborne. We lost 4,600 helicopters in Vietnam so that was not any better than parachutes. In fact, if you consider the price of a helicopter, it was worse than dropping from airplanes (which usually survived, even if the soldier did not.) Anyway, it is very hard to write about actual war, end even harder to read, and no one wants to hear about it. No good can come about revisiting ole wars. Win or lose, you always lose.

    this video spends way too much time on the 34 ft tower (week 2). it looks however like they doubled that evolution instead of using the 250 ft canopy towers which were down for maintenance during class 31-95. the only part of week 1 they covered was standing in the door. they completely ignored in the pits and PT. at 5:11 the guy wearing the gold wings on his black instructor shirt appears to be a Marine SSgt but he does not wear the Army black hat. by comparison the T-11 parachute is superior to the T-10C in terms of ride but appears to descend more slowly. go ahead someone make a Foghat comment
