haha, i know the ants, im infantry, this is actually my 3rd time going to fort benning. whats size ruck do you carry, i know infantry standard is 65 pounds, but what about at airborne school. and do you really get nights and weekends off?

and after a re-triple-check, check again just to be shure that your parachute will be OK in the right time. I belive that is never a bad idea.

Check your chute at least twice as much as you are required to

.

But really, why would you want to jump out of a perfectly good airplane?

=Romagnolo= · 11-17-2008, 05:30 PM

I think they do it just to see if the parachute check worth.

Do this and you'll be fine. And something I learned from my America's Army days... (Lol wut?) When you hit the ground, roll. But really. Don't listen to me, unless they tell you to do that.

yeah, they do teach you to roll, i just really want to know about free time, like if its true you get weekends off and week nights to do whatever.
