      This is my plan for the next super bowl. I just need someone with a ticket to create a diversion, maybe fake a seizure or point away from the field and say "OMG, everyone, quick, look over there!"

    I have made a number of jumps with the 101st at Ft. Campbell and while they are Air Assult they still have Airborne troops. Many of the 101st guys I knew were all Airborne Qualified.
    The approach to the field clearly shows this trooper's professionalism and my Green Beret is of to you Sgt. Sniffen. AIRBORNE ALL THE WAY.

      The reason for not letting the flag touch the ground is to protect it from being soiled or damaged. Merely touching the ground momentarily doesn't mean the flag has been disgraced or defiled.
