Memories! I always admired the guys that, you could tell, were scared to death but jumped anyway! That's the definition of real courage. God, I wish I could go back.
@@Wildcat5181 Haha, I feel the same. The fucking plane was the worst. It was instantly better once you were out. My hands are sweaty, I havent watched a jump since I did it myself. Fuck me.
@@pikeminnow2080 I remember the C119s in jump schoo me They would pop and smoke like crazy, then backfire, scream as if they were in pain and almost sounds as if they were saying, "PHEW!" and then roar during the run-up me During taxi, the winds would move up and down as if flapping. I didn't know metal could bend so much and not break off. Once or became airborn, I could wait to reach the drop zone so I could get off before the wings finally broke off. And while that was going on, there were all the guys vomiting, which lent a special flavor to the cabin air. Oh yeah, you didn't have to coax jumpers out of the plane. We were pressed tightly against the guy in front and even the last guy was pushing to get out. It was definitely healthier in the air. I jumped out of everything but the C-5A and the C-17. I think everyone had decided that if we ever went down by any cause, that best part would be the impact. Nevertheless, I didn't risk my life in bravery; like a prostitute, I did it for the $65.00. And I'd gladly do again tomorrow, tonight on a jump into pitch black darkness would pump me up. Enjoy it while you can lads. Get all the night jumps you can because you will never experience a greater sense of adrenalyzation, except for being short down and surviving, or surviving a firefight uninjured.

I choose the sea over the air! If GOD meant for man to fly he would have gave us wings! lol I choose the sea because the Navy always had the best chow! lol But i miss the sea so much when i got out i became a Commercial fisherman for a while! lol
Never had the opportunity as a 91R Food Inspection Specialist; As a civilian at 45 years of age I trained for free fall, jumped at 10,500 successfully free fall tested with two instructors at my side longest 30 seconds of my life, pulled the cord releasing a yuge Cadillac of a para foil at 5,500 ft coasted on down in 2 1/2 minutes... Most Awesome experience
I Served with LT. Colonel Mcgee in Afghanistan with the rangers. He was a major at the time wow crazy world youtube reccomended this i guess hes normal infrantry now.
My father jumped with the 508th parachute Infantry Regiment in Japan (Red Devils, early 50’s) the 82nd , and 10 1st Airborne.. Has his German, and Vietnamese jump wings...served with the 3rd, 5th, 7th, and 10th Special forces... CSM Raymond Douglas Burbank, interred at Ft Campbell KY..i miss him.
And they are jumping out of McDonnell Douglas C17 and from the two side doors behind the wings. When you open the door there is a deflector so the outside air does put pressure on the person jumping out and getting slammed against the fuselage.
Upmost respect and thank you ALL for your service. I never realized how huge the plane is that airborne jumps from. Somehow looks more dangerous than ppl who jump out those smaller private planes that arent even allowed to fly above certain air space. Awesome job guys!!!🐢🐢🐢cara
It is so organized, that it's hard to mess up. But I have seen a few people fall straight to the ground. I did everything by the book, what I was taught, 52 times, and I never had one issue ever. Scariest jumps I ever did was night time jumps, I did 5, what a rush, I was 17years old 1975. Parents had to give the Army consent to join back then.
i dont believe in blessed, otherwise good men & innocent children wouldnt die horrible deaths, but all respect to these brave soldiers as they go forward into danger.
I really admired women in military training and have a good service to the country, thank you and look after yourself and stay safe always God bless us all and always
Very good my friends paratroopers. Congratulations of brasilians paratroopers. We like so much ours friends americans. Good lucky for all. Saint Michel protect all the paratroopers of the world! Thank you.
@Sirius Magus the only reason you get to sit behind a keyboard and say that is because people die. it's a sad fact, but it's true. God is not a pacifist. He is not a war lover. Just remember, you owe it to these people to at least shut up when they're around. The country is not perfect, but neither is anything else. if it's between them and you, I really hope you see it should be them. Oh, and if you really want to change things, join the US army... hooah and God Bless
I jumped in t-10's, the old dial a death shutes and am still living to tell the tale, Airborne all the way!!! To those who said " nothing falls from the sky, except fools and birdshit", I say, " the only thing that holds up a chicken's ass, is legs"!!!
Love all our military heroes!!! Thank you for all their service!!! We can’t ever thank you enough for what they do to protect and serving our country!! May God bless to all our military heroes be safe and healthy!! And coming home for their family!!!👍👍💪💪👏👏🙏🙏💕❣️💞❤️💜🙌🙌🤗🤗🤗🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
I did this in the '70s. Some things haven't changed since then, but other things have. Interesting to see how the gear has changed. We wore less of it.
That will be my biggest fear when I try out for the greenberets. See if I do not feel secure then I am going to panic. But u guys are doing great. And thank you
They jump with all of that gear, and I travel the world for two months with 4 tee shirts, 5 skivvies, two polo shirts, 1 pair of socks, one pair of jeans and shit and shower gear in a carry on bag with plenty of room to spare.

@@adamrosbrugh3529 we were taught if it was an actual combat jump to just stash them somewhere and mark down the grid coordinates of it. If not, stash it and forget about it bc the missions more important.
@@adamrosbrugh3529 so if its an actual combat jump. aka like D-Day, there is an award for it. and an add on to your jump wings= the "mustard stain". These jumps are jumping into enemy controlled areas to seize and control an airfield to call in more troops. but there hasn't been one like that in a very long time but they are why the airborne was created. Then there is simply combat equipment jumps which include your weapon and ruck sack. Then adversely there is a Hollywood jump which is a jump without any equipment other than chute and reserve chute.
Memories! I always admired the guys that, you could tell, were scared to death but jumped anyway! That's the definition of real courage. God, I wish I could go back.
