I’m a Combat Camera Operator (46YP) assigned to the 982nd Combat Camera Company (Airborne). The only Combat Camera Unit in the Army Reserve. I document Soldiers, Sailors, Airmen, and Marines using both photography and video here in the U.S. and around the World. Airborne All The Way!
Man, have these units gotten so pussified or what. Back on my days, even water jumps and helo casting was in full BDUs and gear, Hollywood jump or not.
100 years on (nearly) and the us military is still using those trash canopies when parachute technology has advanced to exponentially better performance and safety. The countless number of people that senselessly had their careers and lives ruined due to those canopies, broken backs, compound fractures.. trillions spent and for some reason the us military cant afford or is too ignorant to advance to a proper 9 cell canopy with proper flight function and control... no control, hard landings for what?

For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. (Romans 10:13) Have mercy upon me, O God, according to thy lovingkindness: according unto the multitude of thy tender mercies blot out my transgressions. Wash me throughly from mine iniquity, and cleanse me from my sin. For I acknowledge my transgressions: and my sin is ever before me. Against thee, thee only, have I sinned, and done this evil in thy sight: that thou mightest be justified when thou speakest, and be clear when thou judgest. (Psalms 51:1-4)
There's a lot of... irrelevant stuff going on here. The MG students would only be with 316th Cav, not 1st ID or 145th RTI. Sure those 3 units are the sources of the videos, but only 316th runs the MG schoolhouse.
