I've got over 170 jumps and it's the most amazing feeling you can
imagine.

My Dad was Airborne, always wanted to jump with him or at least while he
was still alive but it's too late for that now. Something more important
to do with the money always seemed to come up. Someday soon though!
Maybe for my 50th BDay ? That's a couple years off so I could start
saving again now LOL

Ok I was just curious. My Dad had a cousin who was in the 82nd and was
in DDay and the Battle of the Bulge although he very rarely talked about
it.

I know his oldest brother was in WWII in both the Pacific and European
theaters as a Marine but Dad never saw combat, he was on the tarmac
getting ready to ship to Korea when that "Police Action" was ended.

Ahh back when the 101 was still an airborne unit. They still wear an
airborne tab though due to thier legacy.

My hats off to your dad Mills and your dad's cousin Gemail
