My Journey to Alaska and back....again (and other Army/YankeeVol life adventures)

[Tin Man]

Fair skies and favorable winds, Yankee Vol. :crossfingers:

No. We have quite a few coming up. Each Battalion only gets so many chutes (current jumpers don't have priority) so I have to strap hang (hope someone no shows or they have unassigned chutes left over). Now having a JM band helps. I'm actually trying to get on one today.

Hope you get them all in.

I have one. Not allowed to jump with them

Yeah, I figured. Sure would be cool to see what you see.

There's videos on YouTube.

There's videos on YouTube.

Not of Yankee_Vol.

Yankee_Vol should be tasked with wearing a GoPro for a series as a jumpmaster and as a jumper. The footage should be edited with additional jump prep, flight prep, and interview footage to produce a documentary/informative video on the ops in Alaska. Who do we contact to urge this be undertaken?

Contact your local Russian consulate, they'll likely fund it if you're nice enough.

4/25 actually has a video of our most recent JFEO on their Facebook page. Has a lot of what you mention.
