Of all the jumps I ever did, I never knew what happened on the plane after the jump.
Hahaha the first time I saw deployment bags get pulled in was airborne school and I thought they were pulling in a towed jumper.

Do u guys have lights going down
@@katietorres3466 When I first jumped with my unit after jump school, the 'old timers' told all the 'cherry jumpers', or in other words the ones like me who were night jumping for the first time with their unit, to go down to supply and get their canopy lights. Canopy lights are non existent. It is kind of a hazing ritual most new paratroopers go through. Canopy lights, box of grid squares, bottle of prop wash, and more, are all different and non-existent items a new paratrooper has to discover pretty much on their own, have to discover is total BS.
they fly them straight into tge ground
Spent 20 years in the Marines. I can tell you this…. It takes a special level of crazy to do this. Respect 🤜🏻🤛🏻
I did 23yrs in the Army and 6.5 on jump status at Ft Bragg. I went to jumpmaster school with a Marine in force recon from Lejeune back in 1994. We all have those LGOP's in our ranks.
Fortunately our country has yet to have a shortage of bat shit crazy to fill out all our ranks. RLTW
My Dad, who has passed at 17 was an 82nd air troop in Korea. He said first jump they just pushed each one ahead out, yelling Go, Go... he had so much respect for our country, military, and hard work. Very old school and brought up very tough. In the end, not easy but I was able to thank him for a similar upbringing. "If you want it, you get it for yourself, figure it out", have respect. Thanks Dad.
anyone ask?

Old school is good old school is what saved us blacks from being slaves in the South forever it was Christian values and conservatives and the blacks were the first, conservatives and you can't be conservative without God you will fail every time and weak have examples Arlington Cemetery all of those crosses that are out in in the field, all the people that came from God, were it not for him, we would have been overpowered by Germany we were overpowered by the axis during World War II, if the Democrats were in control at that time they would have served this to the Nazis immediately look at what they doing now
I love that Sgt that did the final tug on the static lines into the plane at the end. "Look, see, I helped." Good jump by everyone else involved on this one.
I don't care how many skydives you have. Until you've stepped into complete darkness wearing 95lb. of equipment and 42lbs. of parachute, son, you are still just a LEG.
AATW!
LET’S GOOOOO! LET’S GET IT!!!

My grandfather made a night jump with the 82nd into northern france in 1944 saint marie eglise
That's awesome, respect. You're grandpa is a hero.
@@GamePathhe was in the 1/508 then. So was I from 1980 to 1983. They were brave men
Jumping was new technology back then and the troops were dropped all over the place.
He must’ve had a lot of trauma from all the aa explosives rounds going off near him.
Respect et merci fromage France ( Sainte Mère Église)
Your Grandfather is my hero.
Those Paratroopers past and present train for night, combat equipment, mass tact airborne operations! Death from Above!
Proud to have been a member of the 82nd!!
...Well when they pulled the jump lines back in I thought that was 1 dude still hanging onto the end of it getting pulled back in😆
The second that door first opens up... been second in line, and never experienced anything quite like it. Wish I could go back.
My very first night jump, I put myself at the end of the line. Plan was to watch everybody else and learn from them. We walked into the plane and were given an about face. This put me now at the front of the line. Ah, can we talk about this. Ah, no.
*It’s not called a line, it’s called a stick. You don’t put yourself in a stick you are assigned a number in pre-jump, it’s a sticker the jump master or safety, puts on your helmet. Look at the video again you can see the stickers. L7… Left Door 7th Jumper… Sorry, I’m afraid you’re not telling the truth.*
Welcome to division troop!
@@jadams1722 Think what you want but in 1968 we did not use numbers in the back of the helmet. In jump school we jumped out of the C-119 boxcar and we did not use numbers. At Fort Bragg we did go in a stick as you say and no the jump master did not put our helmets on. They were on when we got on the plane and stayed on. We did check our gear and static lines being observed by safety. Cant say they didnt do it differently later since I was with the 82nd in 1968. C-119, C-130- and C141 jumper.
This story doesn't jive
I’ve been stick pusher and door position as well as everything in between. Not once did I decide where I would fall in the stick. I was usually the only woman on my bird. Wild days those were!
Parachutes slow me down to much I prefer to jump without one. The landing is a bit rougher, but it’s cool.
It's not the fall, , it's the sudden stop
Damn bro, you're just built different, huh?
Loved night jumps more than anything. Scary, Combat, This is the shit.
Reminds me of my days back in the deuce 87 to 00. That nap of the earth ride though!!
i enlist next year. cant wait to jump out of a perfectly good plane.
One of the best things things you will do in the military. Good luck.
Best thing you can do with your clothes on
The best thing you can do with your clothes off is go into a child daycare
@J.D. Saldivar jump school was scary fun. After that its exciting jumping into new countries, but Sicily drop zone and then jumping back got old pretty quick
In two days
Been there, done that for over a decade... what a life
The Army really knew how to suck the fun out of a paradrop! Longest day and into the night EVER!!
I do not miss the sitting around for hours rigged up waiting to load.
Some jumpers say all their jumps are “night” jumps.......they just close their eyes at the door.....and when they hit the ground.....they say the stars they see are all around them.....! Sign me a retired Canadian Army Parachute Rigger officer.......!
Should I complete highschool i want to be infantry and strive towards speacial forces hopefully jtf2
I was in the 82nd from 1978 to 1982. I was an 11B squad leader in the 2/325...AIRBORNE!!! I miss those days!!!
Brought back a lot of memories. Did mine with the The C-141 Galazy.
I did my jumps from C-141s, C-130s, and two jumps out of a CH-47 Chinook.
C141 wasn't a galaxy. We called em shit lifters. It was before the time of galaxies. But beautiful plane to jump out of. Still, old school guy here. Gimme a C130 any day.
@@xvEDGEvx 1/ 508 from 1980 until 1983. C141, c130 c123, both tail gated and side door. Uh1h, and shithooks. Long time ago , but still fresh in my mind
@@xvEDGEvx starlifter
@@35t10b My brother, we were in at the same time. 13bravo here, we brought fire for the 1st/505. We ate the same dirt, that's for sure. Yeah man, I feel ya. Still fresh as hell. That experience is something you never lose... Airborne all the way my friend.
airborne all the way
The most frightening day of your life is when he opened the door cover but you know you're going to follow through and do it anywhere
Night jumps were awesome. My last one I was standing on the guy below me chute. I ran off it and laughed my ass off. Night jump with a tree landing was terrible though
Class #17-86 roster number 203 Sargent airborne! Our night jump in jump school was gonna be a nice twilight jump, plane ahead of us started to drop paratroopers but aborted due to high wind, what seemed like an hour later everyone was getting nauseous, yes you gotta take the barf bag out with you! We jumped pitch black all I could see was the silhouette treetops on the horizon in front of me as I dropped. said fu$k it pulled a two riser slip on my T-10, feet and knees together, landed but immediately was drug through a stream on the DZ trying to pull my head up out of the water the ruck and chute pulling me in opposite directions as I tried to lift my head, wind drug me out the other side before I got to my quick release. Looking back the most fun I’ve had outside of bed!
US Army Infantry Best Infantry out there, especially Airborne Hooah!
Wrong
Try again
@@mugenlakais6345 He's not wrong though lol
damn straight
You got that right!
We were constantly training, even during the post support cycle. During post support, if we weren't on guard duty or some special duty, like parachute shakeout, we were training for the EIB badge, or doing equipment maintenance. Once I was sent to Recondo School and another time I was sent to Armorer's School. Seems we were always training, though that is not true.
Those were great times...
I remember asking my sergeant how his jump went as we cached our parachutes on the drop zone. He said for him every jump is a night jump.
He said he keeps his eyes closed the whole way 😂
Greetings men. Miss Bragg. Don't be looking all scared and wide eyed like that one guy. The other guy (towards the front of the line) couldn't hide his smile if he tried.... LOL : )
My friend told me every jump he had at jump school was a night jump. His eyes were shut every time!!! 😂
They got some Jumpers make night jump in the Daytime, know what I mean!!!Lol😂💯
I do.
i jumped twice on my 19th birth day only time of 2 jumps same day ( most exicting birth day i ever had ) that was in the 1950s i also packed the last jump i had iwas in rigger school fort lee va shortly got out on hard ship i had reinlisted but my dad was killed in auto acciident ---only son had to get out

seems a lot of fun though!

You'd think there would be some automated/assisted way to manage those tethers.
Most leisurely jump I have ever seen. Whatever happened to hand on the guy's packtray in front of you and getting the hell out...
82nd Airplane gang
Awesome ! How can they know how high they are without night vision goggles ? Do they have some kind of altimeter ? Thanks in advance !
no altimeter. night combat exercise. probably 800 feet.no more than 1000.look at the horizon and prepare to land.
Chute opens by a static line.
Once I released my rucksack from the 18 foot lowering line, I listened for the thump on the ground and braced for my PLF (Parachute Landing Fall). You really don't worry of how high you are.
@@groverodell7357 its sounds like it would be difficult at night, but it wasn't for some reason. Tree landings at night were the scary thing for me. You look down and just see dark. Drop zones caught a little moonlight
In my opinion, it was safer to land at night, because one prepares for landing and don't "reach" for the ground like one would during a day jump.
that girl pulling in those D-Bags was hilarious.
The opening to the movie Sacario 2 brought me here
I never thought it was possible before that you could jump out of a jet this size with a parachute, and I said a jet claim
How many troops from a C-17? average jump altitude? Speed?
john hopkins around 100 troops, approx. 1000ft AGL, 110-120 knots drop speed
@@andrewtausch3858 Planning
airdrop airspeed is 130 knots.
I miss it. But thanks to getting injured in plain sight not once but twice once during a jump and once during a mine wire obstacle breach the va is looking out for me.
I’d trade my old brain back to be able to do this again though
I never thought that you would be able to jump out of a jet
why does it take three people to pull in the static lines on one side...and only two guys on the other side?....
Safety on left door is only five feet tall.
Don't miss that at all especially at night and sim doors
What specifically is bad about it? I’m currently enlisted and want to drop a packet, but I’ve learned that in the army nothing is what you expect it to be so I’ve been on the fence.
Then what happened???
Ft Bragg boxer here got paid to do what I love all my jumps were night jumps ha ha that’s a joke for all you legs 307 engineer and HHT 82nd Airborne
Why WASSECE thé paacus ôte and not black for night-club jumpings?
Why were thé parachutes site and not black? Sorry for the errors.
Did you all see the one troop towards the end of the video who didn't jump out?
Inboard went out on second pass. A.k.a the "racetrack".
wow

That safety had a bit of trouble with those D-bags, But she did it.
Do not ever allow for another Green Ramp disaster to happen again. All accidents are more than 80 percent human error. Stay safe boys.
Shouldn’t airborne troopers have some sort of nvg when they do night jumps, what if they land in a tree or something they could adjust the direction of the parachute but they can’t see so it’s kind of a risk.
This is what we get jump pay for. LOL Srsly though, those chutes are much less maneuverable than you'd think. You'll notice the helmet mounts for the NVGs, but you want nothing like that exposed that could get caught on your way out the door. Every single piece of required equipment is securely tied down. Everything else is inside a pouch, your ruck, etc. What they breeze through is the fact that these guys started preparing for that jump up to 12 hours prior - so all of those kinds of things are checked multiple times in advance.

AIRBORNE!
My biggest fear would be going into high-voltage power lines!
I hope there are never a company of BMPs with 30mms on the DZ waiting for them.
No hollering and vomiting?
i fucking wish i enlisted when i was young. im in my late 20's now would seem pointless to do it, cant imagine being the old head when everyone is 18-25
I'm 24 about to do it. My dad was 29 when he enlisted and was in for 6+ years. Never too late to try. Least you could do is go to talk to a recruiter about trying it out!
Age is no issue, 29 is young, you should go for it if that's what you want. If we think about it, many soldiers go to Airborne School after being a leg for a while if they get orders to report to an Airborne Unit. When I went to Airborne School back in 2002, there were some high-ranking officers from the Marine Corps in their mid to late 30s.
They're not wearing blousing straps
These planes are huge, roomy, 1st class cabin. "Charlie" Company 1/325 ABN INF 1976-'79. C-119 Flying Boxcar, C-123, C-130, C-141 Star Lifter Jet, UH1H Huey & CH-47 Chinook. Very tight space, like stacked upon one another with full equipment, followed each other very closely out the door. Oh, our night jumps was at Zero dark thirty, pitch black and sometimes no reserves chutes. Airborne!
Red falcons will always be our biggest enemies those bastards from down the road. Respect from 2/325 2014-2019
B 1/325 1973-1976 here. I call BS on the "no reserve chute" bit.
I agree. 1\508 80-83. Favorite was tailgating shithooks
@@metaglypto When you are jumping at 500 ft above the ground, whether it is day or night. You don't need 'em, there is not time to fully deploy them. Made several jumps like that in the 82nd.
My farher was with the 45thThunderbird in Korea war.

3:42 I was alway wondering what they did with those like did they lad with the door open and run them over halfway down the runway??? But I guess now somebody finally put the answer out... they fish them in the door which seems to me hard in several hundred mph winds and then shut the doors.
For the Air Farce guys, this is the only thing they have for a mission tasking for the entire week. For the Army guys, it's just the start of a week of sh!t on the ground.
We used to steal any airforce equipment from the plane we could just before the jump. What could they do, follow us
you sound so grateful for the aircrew providing a safe flight for you.
Why was there an Australian flag?
+Tactical operator maybe an australian c-130
+xrklkx most likely a joint mission
***** meh, plane's a plane's, flying or otherwise, people jump out of them, stuff gets thrown out of them and pilots pilot them
+Tactical operator
Someone has to show the *septics* which way was down!!! ;-)
Seriously though, the US and Australia have built a very close military relationship. As we now have 8 C17(A)s ourselves it's not surprising to find crew exchanges across all branches.
www.airforce.gov.au/Technology/Aircraft/C-17A_Globemaster/?RAAF-h0719xJ/eXjMFO8eLULT2D7U+C9pXnFB
We have (I think, don't hold me to this) 2000 odd US Marines on permanent station in Darwin, our northmost major city. There was talk of upping this to 4000.
There are also plans to build a Fleet Base in the area, centred on one of the new carriers. If it goes ahead US Personal will most likely outnumber the locals.
Regards to all,
Rommel
rather it was an American bird or Australian, if the jump masters were of a foreign nation then the jumpers would have been awarded the foreign nations jump wings.
What Reagan did to which was incredibly great, he gave us the ability to fight the Russians without nuclear weapons if they got out of control secretary Weinberger and other members of the Reagan Administration, took us out of the most dangerous situation that will possibly was in thank you Colonel McGregor for your contribution your contribution saved us from a nuclear Holocaust

Nope because he still has jumpers on his door!

Shouldn’t airborne troopers have some sort of nvg when they do night jumps, what if they land in a tree or something they could adjust the direction of the parachute but they can’t see so it’s kind of a risk.
NVGs are more of a hassle, it’s like looking through a toilet paper tube at low HD quality. The light inside the plane is low which allows your eyes to easily adjust to night. Plus depending on the chute, you won’t get a lot of control. If you are over some trees, you’re gonna land in some trees. It’s the pilot’s job to drop you in a clear space
