BTW - very funny - &quot;leg unit&quot; from a troop that hasn&#39;t got his wings yet. I would be careful using that until you&#39;ve done your 5.

I would love to hear how that works out for you, private.

There used to be some 30 day thing until your paperwork cleared and you were unattached to the Airborne School. 30 years ago...

Hooah. No on the head gear. You can request to transfer to an airborne unit. Or you can go to a leg unit like the 101st and still no! Good luck.

That makes everyone a “leg”. Combat air drops don’t happen for conventional airborne units anymore because they are an outdated tactic. SPC Ryan D.
