Down on the range on JBLM last night, we conducted a HALO/para drop mission with 1SF Group. One hundred plus jumpers made their jumps safely and it was a privilege to support the group in completing their training. The group gave us 'Hooks a big thanks by sending the flight crew a case of beer. Now that is a reward to be proud of! I wonder if I can put that on my DD-214 or use it for promotion points? :D

Glad to hear all went well. You know how the saying goes...any jump you can get up and walk away from is a good jump. Usually. Good to hear some traditions like beering are still going strong.

Yes, the fact no one was injured was very gratifying. Needless to say, having the beer tradition/award bestowed upon us is an honor I'll raise a glass to. I can't wait to support the next jump. A great, professional and yet relaxed group to work with. :munchin

On that jump, were the rigs used squares or t-11? I had been told the t-11 was still off line.
