A Co. Class filled with 630 Soldiers and only 521 graduated 6/13/08
Well It's like they said in 1974 when I went to Airborne school, Every one just can not be Airborne.
Yes it is still true today it take a special person to exit an aircraft at 1250 ft above the ground.
And the answer to the 67 year old question why would we jump from a perfectly good plane, is still the same Just because we can "AIRBORNE"
