Hmm. Our exit drills are slightly different compared to the US paras. Amazing how they squeezed 1 month worth of training and jumps into like 10mins. Strange to say, i still fear high lol xD

Nice one Jagd. My favorite song too. Here's the full version with lyrics: http://www.west-point.org/users/usma1981/38405/west_point/songs/bloodontherisers.htm

YippY: I too am afraid of hights but made 56 jumps, including 6 HALO. Confidence in my training and equipment got me through.

Hooah! Super duper Paratrooper! SW, you reminded me of a BAC memory - Blackhat to students before first 250' tower jump: "You'd better not make me have to climb up there and cut you down - 'cause I'm SCARED of heights! Hahahaha...
