Spooky52 0 #3 December 1, 2013 I remember those days. Started jumping in 1963 at Ft. Lee, VA. First jump from a Beaver, second jump from an Otter. Always wanted to jump the Caribou but they sent them all to Vietnam before I got up to the required number of jumps. Fort Lee SPC was a great bunch. I was the only Air Force guy there. The best part was the jumps never cost us anything. Even got my first rig free. I think it was a reserve when you reached 15 seconds and a back when you reached 30. Paid one of the Army riggers about $15-20 to do a 7 TU. Doesn't sound like much now but for an Airman 3rd Class it was. Good times. Thanks.If you know how many guns you have - you don't have enough!

Spooky52 0 #6 December 3, 2013 Never did get to jump the Caribou but I did manage to get in a couple of unauthorized jumps from a C-130 back in 1983. :-) Probably just as much fun.If you know how many guns you have - you don't have enough! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Krip 2 #7 December 5, 2013 BIGUN You're welcome... Not turkey-ed out yet? Hi Sparky, Bigun I'm still eating turkey sandwiches. Great video, second time I've seen it...... Did anyone else notice the collar of the GK commanders twin zipper pioneer jumpsuit at the beginning of the video. I'm happy pioneer changed their collar design by the time us young pups came along.
