About a year ago a couple of teams from the 3d SF Grp were doing a practice jump in the wee hours of the morning in NC and they landed on an Interstate. I had visions of the people driving down that interstate watching these guys coming down. Fortunately, nobody hurt.

This past Saturday, I was driving up 31W through Fort Knox and I saw a trio of soldiers jump out of a Blackhawk over Godman Airfield. It was kind of hard to keep driving when you are rubbernecking like that, so I pulled over to the side and watched.

The last guy out the door caught a gust of wind and almost ended up landing on the highway. The first two landed up on the airfield, but the third guy landed right beside the perimeter fence, about fifty feet from the road.
