Yep, my Momma had to sign for me to join in 74, I was 17. Went through basic, ait and jump school before I turned 18. There were no cell phones back then. Lol

@@dustchip8060 those were the days like to go skydiving but I got two bad knees take care brother

I was with 1/319 from Nov '02-Feb '08. All The Way, Redleg and cheers!

I was in the 2/321 FA in the 82nd from 83-86.

During my time with the 82nd (2/319th AFAR) 83'-87' would never trade the experience for anything else in the world.

That's right.😉

Orlando Sierra Err Rah. 2nd Anglico. Currently at jump right now.

@@nicholasyork6482 best unit in the Corps....2nd Anglico 1988-1991

You're right. I believe the 101st was taken off jump status around the mid 70s.

tapthis87 I was in CBtry from 08-13.

@@ottisharris4878 A 2/321 FA Bn here, 13F3P 81-83

I was C 1/321 also. From 1999-2002. During that time the only thing going on was the MT firefighting deployment and Kosovo.

I kind of think that they will do a better job of protecting each other, just like every soldier who ever lived. You look after the guy next to you, because you *know* that he will be looking after you.

I did the same with the -101. Fort Campbell. 1960 to 1965. Geronimo

I was a Parachute Rigger @ Ft.Benning,Ga. Packed Parachutes for the Jump School 64-67 this kept me from going to nam with thI was only 17 years old.

clayton baker B 1/39 '83 - '84. Transferred to leg land then medalled for first heavy drop emplacement and put into service of 198 howitzer. Good times

How high is High Altitude? Once that door opened, all the wait time until the initial jump, it was the suspense that was killing me (lol!).

I served with 11th Abn div Japan 45-46 next 82 49 -55 then 11th to Germany55 -58. Back to 82nd Deplo to Okenawa 503 c-319 c btry two year's back. I was picked to become a n instructor at Ft benning retired last day May 67 and I also miss it I'll be 91 in July this year

Me either. I wouldn't make it in the army these days. It has changed a lot. And not all of it in a good way. My buddy just retired 4 years ago. We enlisted together in 91. He enlisted as a medic and me as a rifleman. He later switched to a flight medic. Anyways he was telling me that woke culture and everybody gets a trophy ideology is creeping it's way in and ruining the army. Several years back recruits were issued timeout cards and if the drill sergeant was yelling to loud or hurting their feelings the recruit was allowed to pull the TO card and the drill had to immediately cease and desist. I'm pretty sure u can see how well that bs worked. In addition they did not have to pull 2 man fireguard duty, do their own laundry, and keep the barracks squared away. Evidently it was up to the drill sergeant if they had to wax and buff floors etc etc. Thankfully that bs only lasted a short time. But, unfortunately, the social justice crowd has made it's way in to the military. Mostly in the officer corp. But it has started and SJW ideology can spread like an infection if not dealt with. Almost all of Obama's flag officers were woke. Women in spec ops and combat arms for example. I miss being in the army and serving my country as it once was. But I'm happy I'm out

Sorry for being long winded lol

C 1/508th here too , wpns plt , i was in 71-74 11C2P

1/508 hq co. 86 to 88 we switched flags somewhere in that time to 3/505. Before we went to Hondo nam.

Yep, loud like no other... 130 you jumped up 1 ft and out three, the 141 just step out. Check Can of peas...

Insane feeling of nervousness, fear and adrenaline rush all at the same time. Jump out 4 seconds later all silent. What a rush man.

I was C 1/321. From 1999-2002. During that time the only thing going on was the MT firefighting deployment and Kosovo.

Same time frame 1/319 FA ARTY SURVEYOR/ FO

I got the Star Lifter (C 141) once. That was like flying first class.

​@@overthetoplads2784 The C 141 was just coming in to the AF inventory when I left and went to flight school in 1962 so never jumped it. Always wanted to jump the Huey but never got the chance.

I jumped from a C-123. C-130 and my most hated one the C-141 Star Lifter

We (1st 508 82nd) went to Murrieta Georgia to jump out of a C5A mock-up in its planning stage, circa 1967.

Mine was too. 44th Jump Co.

I was C 1/321 also. From 1999-2002. During that time the only thing going on was the MT firefighting deployment and Kosovo.

Flyingbadgers2001 jumping Hollywood style.. hoorah

Right shoulder patch means he served in combat with the 101st.

That’s a deployment patch on the right side... unit path goes on your left side of the uniform..

I have never gone static line, but yeah, I miss skydiving too
