DaveO 0 #1 January 13, 2005 Well, tomarrow it will be twenty years since I made my first parachute jump as a young Marine at Ft. Benning. Looking back I never thought I would be freefalling objects the same height as those towers. Doesn't seem like twenty years. Damn, does this mean I'm one of the old guys."When it comes to BASE, I'll never give advice, only my opinion" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DaveO 0 #8 January 14, 2005 Thanks Nick. Here is a pic from back in the day. I did finally go to Military Freefall School back in 1987 after I got to a Recon unit. Didn't want anything to do with the T-10 or MC1-1B after that. Joy, I was only six back in 1972. I'm going to fight this getting old thing tooth and nail. Just like ,MUFF,MUFF,MUFF-He's my hero!
