It looks pretty fuckin cool but you're going to destroy your knees faster than pretty much anyone else in the armed forces.

As based as 100% disability after 4 years and double hip and knee replacements at 30 can be.

101st get more ass and see more shit than any jump-focused regiment, because heli-based air assault is better suited to counter insurgency warfare; which is all we will ever be fighting until america collapses.
Ian Moore
Not really. I'd imagine being a type of infantry that's actually useful in modern warfare is much more fun.

No lol, you could literally do everything right and still get unlucky and have the same end result as

Static-line jumping is less effective than helicopter insertion in low-intensity conflicts and absolute suicide in a peer conflict.
Alexander Campbell
So do you think he could walk again?

I fell from a bike and broke my arm but never screamed
Logan Reed
even for small units of specialist troops doing HALO? mass jumps of regiments sure but for spooky operators?
Henry King
do you really think that's comparable to breaking one or both legs after falling several thousand feet?

>t. SFAS washout who found himself in the 82nd

HALO isn't static line. You’re self-deploying your chute in that scenario. The issue is deploying special forces in a situation that you couldn’t fly a helicopter in to recover them. That has a high potential to be a one way trip, even if the mission is completed.

HALO is not static line.

Heli insertion hasn't replaced paratroopers.
Paratroopers have strategic mobility, while helicopter insertion mostly works for tactical purposes
If USA had to invade a country the first soldiers who would get in there would do so by paradrop

You always have the pussys too scared to jump in these threads
Hudson Ortiz
genuinely curious, does that whole "leg" thing feel at all hollow? like, I cant imagine anyone feeling anything but pity when someone jump qualified calls them a "fuckin' leg". its like an millennial trying to flex on a zoomer by showing off his mad skateboarding skills, when no zoomer gives a flying fuck about skateboards or even knows who tony hawk is.

Doesn’t mean shit because you have legal clerks and supply pukes with jump wings. Pic related is the only badge that matters.

gory gory what a hell of a way to die
