So Katie forgot "equipment" in her post we all knew what she meant. So you never liked the ceremony you had to do, there are plenty who do and are proud of the unit they are in being recognized. Do some of the ceremonies seem self serving? Sure just like posting on dropzone.com can be self serving. Oh and nice to meet you! (I have a Combat Jump, Just Cause December 1998) Good day! and Blue Skies! An Instructors first concern is student safety. So, start being safe, first!!!

Yeah it is a pretty sharp suit, Isaw one time up close at like 12k or sumthin' As to the original post, a dark back and legs will show less of the wear your gonna get during the begining of your jumping days. The Static Discharge strips on the arms and legs can be flashy as long as the back of them is darker for when your getting video it will be easier to debreif (not a real major deal, only minor at this point). To add color do it in the torso on the front, and again stick to 3, 4 colors at the most. But hey, first, is a first, it is still beer, no matter how you want pronounce the damn word.

Get the probate lawyer. Your being short changed and your mom too. But you don't want her debts to be passed to you through some horrible scenario. The military pay (as you know) is probably already done properly, but all the rest. An Instructors first concern is student safety. So, start being safe, first!!!

Go back out t othe DZ and see how you feel. AFF would probably be the way to go if it is to be a "decision maker" jump. Don't quit man your gonna miss it! Your posting here for a reason right? You just need some some to say "Shut up and Jump!"

Well you fixed the spelling before I could post, damn. Army Rigging and Civilian Rigging have similarities but are way different over all. After the Army if you plan on working as a civilian rigger you'll need to do some additional training, you can do it while in the Army, of course. I have been in the Airborne for 18 of my near 21 years. It is a tough job and thankless as a rigger. But you'll have fun with all the equipment and people you'll be safely dropping to the earth. If you go to Bragg use the Post Club to your benefit, Benning then talk to the Silver Wings and their Rigger's, Campbell see me at the PDT Team room. Good luck and be safe!

Just not the same MNF. But Sunday Night Football is better now. The monday night games where ho hum. The anouncers sounded like they happened to be way out of their element, they need a bit more practice. The Cheerleaders looked great as usual though! An Instructors first concern is student safety.

I say "yes" in the form that it already is. It is my opinon that many want it as a day off and are sadly using the September 11th attack as another way to stay home. An Instructors first concern is student safety. So, start being safe, first!!!

Cool! Good job Bud! Dont rush but hurry up, so we can get the right colors on ya! Your Team rigs and suits are just waiting for you to sign in! Your form looks good, your probably a bit more RW current than us, so you can teach us a few things. An Instructors first concern is student safety. So, start being safe, first!!!

I just wish we had some thing NEW. I know most all this "news" is coming out due to the upcoming elections but jees how long are we gonna use old stuff? Oh shit, never mind, two opposing politicians just used Pearl Harbor as an example and tried to blame each others Grand Parents. An Instructors first concern is student safety.

Congrats MAX! I am jealous I will not be on the load with you! I am inspired by your hard work every day, hurry back as the Team is waiting for you to pick up your rig and join Us in the air! An Instructors first concern is student safety. So, start being safe, first!!!

I just laugh and let him go. He will implode, his fruadulant claim and fake combat trauma will hurt his cause more than an ass whoopin' would. An Instructors first concern is student safety. So, start being safe, first!!!

Then why are all those people whinning about night jumps? If it is just permission to do some thing (jump in this case) and you don't need night jumps to jump, what is the problem? This has come full circle in my opinion. We (the collective community) have argued are selves back to the begining. The USPA system is easy, almost weak in regards to standards. To do away with a license will make it even weaker and the US Skydiving Community will suffer for it. Just My Opinion. An Instructors first concern is student safety. So, start being safe, first!!!
