I remember when my outfit was practicing Airborne-Armor linkup at Ft Campbell we would ride on the tanks and when they started across fields at 20-25 mph it wasn't uncommon to lose some guys who were'nt paying attention and not hanging on real tight

NEVER WALK when you can RIDE, NEVER RIDE when you can FLY.

That's the argument the recruiter used to convince me to go Airborne. I bought it and ended up flying. jumping out of the plane and _then_ walking.
