Freezing Arctic Airborne Operation
Posted 3 days ago by Member 30091762
Paratroopers conducted a unique "tailgate" jump, donning the complete arctic over-white winter uniform with ski equipment and the arctic sustainment packing list as a rehearsal for upcoming airborne operations in northern Alaska next year.
Personally, I've never liked jumping in VB boots. I remember how utterly still and quiet it is when jumping into the cold. Can anyone identify for me the type of parachutes they were using? Now how would you MFF those skis and an akieo?
