I'll never forget watching the 50th anniversary D-Day ceremony on television when some WWII veterans actually made a jump at Normandy. Because of their age they were warned against it but they chose to do it anyway. They all landed safely with the exception of one man who landed with the wind and was badly injured.

Any stories on the 101st guys and their mohawks?
