If that is the incident you speak of. He said they had the wind wrong, a guy hung up in the door he did not know about, total fubar.
Damn that is sad..
He just died or I would have asked him.
Third guy from the left.

Hi 4th.

Sorry to hear about your buddy....He's right...Total FUBAR. I was just a young pup Ranger back then..Nothing to fear. I will never forget that jump, each one since then has carried a little anxiety for me. I really don't jump anymore. I have kids, and I no longer take those chances as I once did.

I will say a prayer for your bud. PM me with his name.
