CW2 Louis Melendez yeah, I was pretty happy to get on the Botswana Jump. I think they have only showed up once while I was at Bragg (for almost a decade.)

CW3 (Join to see) - Some are very difficult to get because those countries come to Bragg once in a while and everybody knows that and try to just jump with them.
(Bostwana, Mexico, Brazil, and many others for example)
