JohnnyMarko 1 #2 August 3, 2015 Now you have to add it to your profile, and update your jump numbers before stowing your toggles so everyone knows you're legit. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

skybill 18 #17 August 8, 2015 promise5Mines 294840 Hi "P-5," That's quite a number,"294,840!!!" That means that since USPA, and even before, PCA, finally decided to get everyone's "USPA #" in some chronological order, yours is "That" number, the "Newest" member of the Sport!! "Congrats!" Funny how that goes, 'have to do some diggin' in my "archives" but "back when" PCA just issued numbers yearly or something and after they decided to do this "Get Organized" trip, they took all the current members "way back when" and assigned numbers from who was the longest continuous member on up. Well when the smoke cleared, mine was USPA#...............3-5-6!!! That was back in the late 60's or early 70's?? Yup!, "356!!" Funny how that goes, My buddy Caz Zielewski signed some dude' log with his "4-digit" "D" license # and the dude went to the DZO complaining that Caz didn't use "enough numbers????" As the now late Frank Gallop would say....,"R-E-A-L-L-Y-!!!!!" 'Some of us are that old......and still....."SKYDIVE!!!!!!"...."Like ME!!!"SCR-2034, SCS-680 III%, Deli-out Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

skybill 18 #19 August 9, 2015 Hi Lisa, Yes, mine is "1495" signed off on 29MAY1983 at Scare-Us-Valley. Did a 10 way night dive, have to get my logs out to see who all but I recall right off, Geno Johnson was also a recipient. Jana Logan asked after we did the de-brief who "did not" have a Freak Brother # and we antied up. Turns out we qualed. so it goes. One more coolie rating to add to my collection.......Till........I went to "Freak Brothers 1984" at "Freak Port!!!" What a Blast!!!!! That event is a post in an of itself!! Al Krueger, John Brasher, Mike Allen, Perry Armstrong and a host of other Scare-Us people were there and met countless Freak Brothers and Sisters from all over!! A good time was had by all, oh yes!!! The 24-way "Tea Cup" the "Monster" photo of which is in the Skydive Chicago main room!! I'm at the 6 o'clock position on the outside rim!!SCR-2034, SCS-680 III%, Deli-out Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
