BS I graduated Airborne School 30 years ago next month with a 48 or 49 year old LTC Female headed to command a QM unit that had Riggers assigned so she went thru and earned her wings At 28 you’re still in the prime of life PV2 Miguel Ramos! “Mind over matter, if you don’t mind it won’t matter”! Don’t stay a LEG! Go Airborne AATW! HOOAH!

LTC John Mohor, I made my 5th qualifying jump and was awarded jump wings on the DZ on 9APR70. It was great to be able to walk back to the trucks on the drop zone and I was a brand new 11C1P!
I'm proud to say that airborne legend COL Lamar "Bill" Asbury Welch was the Director of the Airborne Department during my airborne training period. I was attached to 47th Company for training and I was in Class 32.
AATW!
