    We had some fun jumps at Fort Bragg in the 80's when I was there. The C130 would land right on the DZ and pick up another load. Up and down we went all day. They had bleachers set up for family member who wanted to come watch the show! We did -1B training from CH46 Chinooks. Six second count seemed like ages walking off the tailgate. Lots of trees up at camp McCall too. We spent some time picking folks out of them but no serious injuries when I was there.
