From me too.

Congrats,

I am glad you had the chance to do this.

I am glad they didnt make me do it!

Congratulations trooper! The proudest day of my time in the Army was the day I got my wings in 1967.

AIRBORNE - - - ALL THE WAY!

Congratulations! We are proud of you!

Why would anyone want to jump out of a perfectly good airplane?

Edited for spelling. The spelling police are watching!

Me too, do we get to tack those wings on the next time we see you?

I believe that Gunnery Sergeant Tom Highway had the same sentiment. IIRC, he said, "It is an unnatural act to jump out of a perfectly good aircraft."

I wear an Airborne tab on my uniform, but have no jump-wings. I love to tease my buddies that do have actual wings. Of course, they actually have something to brag about.

Congrats.

Any my reply is... "There's no such thing as a perfectly good airplane!"

Thanks for the replies everyone. It was a very proud day.
"Officially" blood wings are not allowed... but we'll just leave it at that.

Neither are "blood stripes" in the Marines, but...............

Congratulations, proud of ya!
