Re: Paratroopers Stand in the Door
I went through Airborne school in November '95... 1st platoon, Delta Company "The Rock"... Not a terribly intense school, but I have fond memories.

Re: Paratroopers Stand in the Door
usmc chuter, I'm Delta Rock also. Do you remember a Big Black Guy (Black Hat) that all the instructors called Blue. I had the joy of making my first jump on October 31, 1996. Trick or Treat!

Re: Paratroopers Stand in the Door
Rusty, sorry for the delay.. Nope, don't remember a black hat named "blue." The names of my black hats have long since faded... However, I remember the company commander was Capt Stone and the 1sgt was named Campbell.. I remember him because he made it abundantly clear that he hated Marines... Good times..
