"Jumping Was Great"
I can't say what this Jump Log will mean to the viewer. When I look at it, I hear the Plane's deafening engines, I see Men carrying on, making jokes, see the anxiety on their faces. When that light goes GREEN and the sticks of Jumpers shuffle out those doors at maximum speed. Men and gear hitting that icy prop blast with no hesitation, as their buddies in the plane yell "GO! GO! GO!" and the left and right sticks race to empty first. The last stick out got stuck buying the BEER, plus those Drop Zones weren't that Damn LONG!!!!
