Calling 68 series ancillaries, who has what it takes to be a Paratrooper?

The Division is looking for a few good Paratroopers! Currently they are looking for some highly motivated skill level 1, 68A,Q,G,J. Are you up to the challenge?

My knees wouldn't last through towers, let alone a drop. Never felt compelled to jump from a perfectly good aircraft, but mad respect for those that do. Felt like jumping out of a 46 once, because of hot dog pilots during an Op in Greece. Combat flare and drop in a relic with rags soaking up hydraulic fluid.
