Cheyenne Ranger, 48747L

reason I always wanted to be first out of the door--the truck parks at the beginning of the drop zone--back of the stick ends up way out from it. we put the biggest troops at the back and they would lower their shoulders and push everyone in front of them to speed up the process. and no one ever floated away once out the plane . . . cause gravity is just just a good idea, it's THE LAW

they didn't have the drugs we have today, minor illnesses could be fatal back then

off the track here but . . . that's why I wondered why the Army put velcro on the field jacket sleeves down where you adjust the end, this being in the late 60s to early 70s
