I didn't realize that the Russian Army had parasailing wings. Who knew?
This is why I'm not Airborne

It's ok, Support Co. will never go off to war. We don't NEED to work on our basic soldiering skills. We will never be deployed.
Kayaks. That is all.

Very true brother. Very true....or eating an F.L.A.(ambulance for DZ coverage) with you're face when the winds change because 44th. Med (not Division medics) cannot re-position said FLA. (I can neither confirm nor deny that ever happened to me)...but it hurt.

So JV. High winds always require landing in trees: the vast network of branches capture the 'chute and prevent this very thing from happening.
@Ranger Psych "Airfields":wall:...pfft. You gotta think outside of the box and use your environment. Ever notice that airfields are typically devoid of trees?
My God, next you'll start preaching the benefits of PLFs! Tree landings do not require PLFs.

I'll take tree landings over landing in a fucking ILS/NDB/ETC fucking beacon box of anal hunting antennae, TYVM.
Especially considering the one tree landing I had over my 64 jumps was literally the softest I had.

My softest landing was in a field in Germany... N/T/CE with half of SF Regiment's gear in/on/hanging off my ruck... into a large international JSOT ... I was buried to my knees in mud... no need for a PLF, actually, no way to do a PLF.
True story: Drop from Huey's onto DZ in LeJeune onto dry, hard dirt. One guy did not perform PLF correctly. Injured his back. He couldn't get up and was in a pile of very tall grass. He pops smoke to signal he is injured and to locate his poz.
Did I mention that it was a very dry month with tall, very dry grass?

Marine BBQ.... smells just like pork, doesn't it?
:wall:So, did you recover fully?:-"
Softest landing for me was a night resupply mission in Ft McCoy WI. About 4ft of soft snow, I just sat down (had no choice) when I landed. Getting the sled with MRE's and other shit out sucked balls, but the landing was nice.
PLF's do fucking work though. My major fucking complaint is that I literally had 2 jumps out of all of em where I did something remotely resembling what we were trained to do.
Yeah, mostly it was just....."Fall Down, Go Boom"... then left fucking capewell, left fucking capewell.....

LoL says who? It was a jump, I landed, softly.... I don't recall parameters being set for this labia measuring contest 
Why am I not surprised that a support guy would want to measure his labia
