@@pikeminnow2080 I remember the C119s in jump schoo me They would pop and smoke like crazy, then backfire, scream as if they were in pain and almost sounds as if they were saying, "PHEW!" and then roar during the run-up me During taxi, the winds would move up and down as if flapping. I didn't know metal could bend so much and not break off. Once or became airborn, I could wait to reach the drop zone so I could get off before the wings finally broke off. And while that was going on, there were all the guys vomiting, which lent a special flavor to the cabin air. Oh yeah, you didn't have to coax jumpers out of the plane. We were pressed tightly against the guy in front and even the last guy was pushing to get out. It was definitely healthier in the air. I jumped out of everything but the C-5A and the C-17. I think everyone had decided that if we ever went down by any cause, that best part would be the impact. Nevertheless, I didn't risk my life in bravery; like a prostitute, I did it for the $65.00. And I'd gladly do again tomorrow, tonight on a jump into pitch black darkness would pump me up. Enjoy it while you can lads. Get all the night jumps you can because you will never experience a greater sense of adrenalyzation, except for being short down and surviving, or surviving a firefight uninjured. Damn, I miss it all. Airborne All the Way! and then some.

the yellow rope is called a static line. the static line is attached to an anchor line cable which runs from the front to the rear of the plane about 6 - 7 feet off the ground. the static line is attached to our canopy so when we jump the static line essentially pulls the chute for us so we dont have to

These jumps are jumping into enemy controlled areas to seize and control an airfield to call in more troops. but there hasn't been one like that in a very long time but they are why the airborne was created. Then there is simply combat equipment jumps which include your weapon and ruck sack.
