I ain't afraid of shit. Jumping just isn't my preferred method of getting to work if I have another option. Too hard too keep the Team together, all the gear where its supposed to be and not get anyone hurt.

Solid it's a simple game of controlling your emotions or they will control you.

CV,

What's your MOS? I'm a former 74C2S and I noticed the 35th Sig patch.

I'm glad that those of you who are afraid of heights still jump. A friend of mine at my college gave up his slot this summer to ABN school because he was afriad of heights shortly after there was a Cadet who was extremely happy. (no - it's not me)

I was scared to the point of almost pissing my pants on the 34' tower. Same in the plane. It's just another target. If you can't face your fears they will rule your life.

I wish that I had this in my thoughts when my friend told me he gave his slot up. Maybe it was for the better?

I'm glad to hear that you faced your fear and like you said- didn't let it rule your life.

Has your fear of heights been done away with?
