He planted his| feet ana let the prop blast roar, into his face as he stuck his hea ers. | Then, the jump-master, swinging the flat of his hand hard up against | the uncarside of Anglin's leg, yelled: “Got” | As in an unfinished old- fasmoned out the door.

Count Off! 1,000, 2,000, 3,000,” we said. That's three seconds. If the snap of the chute open- ing hadn’'t been felt by then, we were instructed to pull the reserve ripcord on “4,000.” Mine opened in the middle of “2,000.” I said it something like “two-UMPH- thousand.” I looked up and the umopy was over me like a tent, suspension linés taai. Below me was the fieid, | like a well kept lawn. There was | no feeling of falling or height, but | I was swinging a little, so grabbed ' the righ* front and left rear risers, chinning myself to check the oscil- lation. 1f 'They Could See Me— | | commanded: | We were about 800 feet up.

Hen-| ry Buchenan, late of Anderson, 9. | C., came in on a slight knee bend and stood up without a roll. There was a puddle of water eff to the right, and Lt. Robert Carlson, Utica, N. Y. plowed it up like a motor- | boat. We started rolling up our chutes to get off the field. Mcet The Paratrooper And that, with accompanying post mortems, covered the first- of five jumps necessary to qualify as a parachute trooper. It took the Ar- my four weeks to train us for this landing, which is about two per- cent of what a parachutist has to do. The otner 98 percent is fight- ing the enemy tooth and nail, when encountered, and winning. What kind of a man does it take to become a paratropper? * First, without any bouquets, I would say it takes a man who can conquer his fears, grit his teeth and do what's expected of him in any pinch. Like no other soldier, he proves his courage every day of his training. Second, it takes a man who is original, individual, and who be- lieves ne can take command of his own destiny. | He gets a mission, him to aecomplish it. of all a !'The two-mile runs, with Indian club: climbs to build arms and shoulders, : | the mock-up plane, | vated platform on which is in the field parachutist tactics. and it's up to This Is No Picnic | Jur‘npiug from a plane is the least combat trooper’s worries. the half houcs the 30-foot rope | the trainasium, tumbling until diz- zy, and chinning for hours in sus- pended parashute harness — thesé were the easy things sprained ankle a 30-foot ele- mount- ed a sitaulated plane door.
