95% of the exits were very poor. I suppose this happens when one is no longer active duty - out of practise.

Now do that at night into hostile territory where men are hunting you with rifles while 88mm anti-aircraft cannons are exploding in the air and you probably have to jump rushed and unceremoniously because the plane took fire and the pilot told the jump master he can’t keep it steady and they’d better dismount to save themselves, while you’re watching your buddies falling from the sky when their metal tubes with bombs strapped to them are exploding, and now when you get to the ground, you will be lost and not be able to find your comrades so you’ll spend the next few hours trying to find any other paratroopers and hoping not to run into the aforementioned men with rifles… but on a positive note, you don’t have Van Halen playing in the background nor know what a Van Halen is. Someone should dub over the jump the jump from band of brother with some Halen.

Stand up landing? No PLF?
@PrimaryJumpmaster5 жыл бұрын
"The fifth point of performance is “LAND”. You will make a proper parachute landing fall (PLF) by hitting all five points of contact. Touch them, and repeat them after me. 1) BALLS OF YOUR FEET, 2) CALF, 3) THIGH, 4) BUTTOCKSand 5) PULL UP MUSCLE. You will never ATTEMPT to make a standing landing." I assure you, I was not attempting to stand, I merely made no effort to fall and landed so softly I was not carried over into a proper PLF. Not caught on camera but I did beat my boots for you.

As a 32 year old male who works in Substations, I find it amazingly brave that young men-younger than I am, jumped at night into nazi territory. Separated from their buddies and a day away from reinforcements. Alone, some hurt and expected to complete a mission at all costs. Thank you soldiers!

I've never heard of that before, ever. In fact the whole point of the L&R line-release system (two special links that release 2 rear suspension lines each) is to release 4 rear suspension lines on a round reserve canopy after opening to make it steerable. This was back in P.C. days.
