Karl - Palmyra!!! What I remember most about Palmyra is the surrounding cornfields (of course the same applied to Maytown) and playing drinking games (Cardinal Puff) at the "Rising Sun"!! I left the area in Sept 1970, so I'm sure we spent some same days at both DZs. I envy you the jacket. I don't recall it being available. _________________________________________ The older I get, the better I was!

A couple had only been married for two weeks. The husband, although very much in love, couldn't wait to go out on the town and party with his skydiving buddies. So, he said to his new wife, "Honey, I'll be right back." "Where are you going, Coochy Coo?" asked the wife. "I'm going to the bar, Pretty Face. I'm going to have a beer." The wife said, "You want a beer, my love?" She opened the door to the refrigerator and showed him 25 different kinds of beer, brands from 12 different countries: Germany, Holland, Japan, India, etc. The husband didn't know what to do, and the only thing that he could think of saying was, "Yes, Lollipop... but at the bar... you know... they have frozen glasses... " He didn't get to finish the sentence, because the wife interrupted him by saying, "You want a frozen glass, Puppy Face?" She took a huge beer mug out of the freezer, so frozen that she was getting chills just holding it. The husband, looking a bit pale, said, "Yes, Tootsie Roll, but at the bar they have those hors d'oeuvres that are really delicious... I won't be long. I'll be right back. I promise. OK?" "You want hors d'oeuvres, Poochie Pooh?" She opened the oven and took out 5 dishes of different hors d'oeuvres: chicken wings, pigs in blankets, mushroom caps, and pork strips. "But my sweet honey... at the bar.... you know ...there's swearing, dirty words and all that..." "You want dirty words, Cutie Pie?... " LISTEN ASSHOLE! SIT DOWN, SHUT THE F**K UP, DRINK YOUR GODDAMN BEER IN YOUR F**KING FROZEN MUG AND EAT YOUR F**KING HORS D'OEUVRES BECAUSE YOUR MARRIED ASS ISN'T GOING TO A F**KING BAR! THAT SHIT IS OVER... GOT IT, ASSHOLE?" .....and, they lived happily ever after. Isn't that a sweet story? _________________________________________ The older I get, the better I was!

Thanks for the update. I guess we all looked (still look) up to Dave. I can only describe him as 'a soldier's soldier; a skydiver's skydiver; and a man's man" _________________________________________ The older I get, the better I was!

Thanks for everything. We'll miss you, Don. RIP _________________________________________ The older I get, the better I was!

Not trying to make any sort of statement here. Not pro-gun control, not anti-gun control, not anti-Islam and not pro-Islam either. I'm just saying -- if you have time to waste this is kinda fun! http://www.sizor.com/flash/binladen.htm http://www.sizor.com/flash/binladen.htm Enjoy _________________________________________ The older I get, the better I was!

The SFSPC patch definitely has nothing to do with dropping Dumbo or Dumbo droppings---fall rate? ---ehhh could be. Actually that three-headed elephant is symbolic of Thailand (like there's elephants all over the place??) and appears on lots of things. The "K" in the circle is really just part of someone's ego trip. The patch was designed by an long-time American resident of Thailand, named Richard "Kit" Carson. His momument to himself I've a bunch more patches but have no idea where. _________________________________________ The older I get, the better I was!

Thanks to all the fathers, mothers, sisters and brothers, aunts, uncles, cousins, friends and neighbors who have ever worn a uniform in service to this great country. Happy Veterans Day. _________________________________________ The older I get, the better I was!

Don't know if these were already posted. Hope not. Some oldies from back-in-the-day. These things were great for covering holes in your jumpsuit. _________________________________________ The older I get, the better I was!

That's great news. I assume that's in NC. Dave and I go back a long way (for a couple of young dudes). If you see him - please tell him I was asking about him. Thanks John _________________________________________ The older I get, the better I was!

Yeah. I think it is probably a jump#/age thing. The two are pretty much tied together. Early on it was all about recognition. Now we pretty much know who we are - and are comfortable with it. _________________________________________ The older I get, the better I was!

Wondering if long-time SF type, one-time CSM XVIII Abn Corp, early-times hard corp jumper Dave Clark is still among us. I think, at one time or another, he was a key member of every SPC on Ft. Bragg. One hellava man. Does anybody know if he's stll around? _________________________________________ The older I get, the better I was!

Thailand - years ago - Thai/American 'friendship' demo jump at some Wat way out in "who woulda thought it?". To get to the Wat we first traveled by bus, then by truck to a dock in some small klong-side (canal-side) village. From there we went 'up-river a couple of miles in "klong boats". The Wat was on the far side of the klong and had dirt field suitable for Cessna 182 take off/landing. We took off. We jumped. You guessed it! Like idiots, we landed on the wrong side of the klong. Pissed off some water buffalo and then had to hitch a boat ride back across. Impressive _________________________________________ The older I get, the better I was!

This thing didn't even slow down but I got on-board anyway. Not really new to the sport, just kinda out-of-it. Been around since a measurement for time was invented. Got some (lots) "night-water jumps". You know...closed my eyes 'n' peed my pants. I enjoy the banter back 'n' forth 'twix the greatest people in the world...Skydivers! _________________________________________ The older I get, the better I was!
