  1. Hey flyhi, I must have met you back then! I was the other member that was not SF :-) . About 5-6 of us came over to the club from the hospital. I think I'm the only one that didn't quit. I recognize all those names! Great guys. I used Reid's jumpsuit sometimes (until I bought Dave Smith's). I was in the Ft. Devens Trojan Sport Parachute Club, 77-79. Still have the patch to prove it. Great times. I heard Dave Smith went on to make the Golden Knights. We jumped in Pepperell, MA, next to the creek, forest, and motocross track. I landed in a tree my first jump but kept jumping. I had a chance to be in the first all-military eight-way but we didn't jump because of the wind. I would have been the least experienced - needless to say part of the base. I worked at the hospital (Darnall) and most of my jumping friends were Special Forces. Anyone else at Devens back then? Still got my patch and trophy for 2nd place in the First Annual Jumpfest at Bragg.
