Don't try to take a test at the test center while you're at work. wink

Between verifying answers and my other responsibilities, I did not achieve the desired results.

Tribute to an uncle that passed away...I never made it to group but certainly supported from the air a bunch...did some jumps attached to 10th group back in the late 80s down at Devens

Hats off for your Uncle.
The ranks are always weakened when we loose a Beret.

I was lucky enough to spend some team time with the 20th. They're a Guard group, and it took some time for us both to get adjusted (AC in a Guard), but the professionalism not withstanding, they were some of the greatest guys I've been able to work with.
I broke an ankle two weeks before Selection. My 1SG tells me that I was doing the PLF "ALL WRONG." (of course my forward PLF usually consisted of three points; feet . . . knees . . . face, and I have the crooked nose to prove it.)
