enjoyed my morning buy jumping out of a plane courtesy of the Latvian Army. It was a little windy and caused some oscillation as I landed and SSAAALLLAAMed my head into the ground.
But you can't beat falling from the sky and living to tell about it.
Do y'all use round 'chutes or square? Just curious, if it's not compromising any military secrets.
round, T10d. We have a new one we were using but a guy burned in on a jump in JUL so we stopped jumping until they figured out went wrong.
Cool, thanx.
The new 'chute was round also?
Actually it was "square" but not like the sky-diver square. It had four equal sides with vents at the four corners. You fell a lot slower, considering with equipment and all a 200 pound guy is on the edge of 400 pounds when he jumps.
Interesting. Thanks again!
I know I asked you before but where did you get your avatar thing-a-jig? I may copy it and put it above my bunk next time I deploy.
It's a great philosophy no matter what you do for a living.![]()
I think you complimented me on it, but if you asked & I didn't answer, my apologies.
I found it in a google images search. Send me a pm w/ an e-mail address and I'll send you a copy.
It's a personal favorite of mine. So applicable for so many situations.
I've admired the quote, too. It strikes me as something that might fit in Catch-22.
My favorite "chill out!" quote is "Don't panic." in a soothing font. It's the only thing I've considered getting as a tattoo.

But more important than "Don't Panic" is, "Always know where your towel is".![]()

I think that hhgttg is an underlying theme with us
When I get a tattoo, it will involve the number 42, just haven't figured out how yet.

If you do, the universe might disappear and be replace with something even more bizzare.
Like one where Spock has a goatee.
Oops, too late!
