Funny thing is, so many of you have been jumping out of planes since before many on this board were born...myself included.

Then again, I've always liked being the youngest guy. Was one of the youngest in my platoon while I was a platoon leader. At 28, I was the second youngest on my ODA. Now, I'm going to the Pentagon and will be the youngest in my office again. I'm in for a wake up call when I retire and, wait no, I'll be the youngest in my retirment home.

As if you needed any more numbers to make you feel old, I made it out of Jump School in 2000.

Congratulations on the Anniversary

ABN summer 78, SFQC Jan 83 (start).

BMT, curious, what type of aircraft you were dispatched from in your ABN course?

One of mine was C-123, which causes me to start to wonder about my own fog transition
