Me, I don’t fly well with a window seat; no way anybody is sealing me inside an AFV.

The idea of night drops bothered me a good bit. I did not care for the idea of possibly coming down in a lake. Or a pond. Or a swamp or bog. Or an ocean....

After 388 jumps, my Airborne days are over. I would have liked to have quit with an even 400, but then I'd have said *Oh, petunias!* and gone for 500 even....

I’ve only got two jumps but that’s enough for me.
