PS1VY627-8

Cadets from the U.S. Air Force Academy conduct forty hours of ground training to learn the ins and outs of parachuting, everything from standing in the aircraft door, pulling their cords, emergency procedures and learning how to land properly. The course officially called AM 490, is a jump school that teaches leadership traits and is taught and organized for cadets by cadets, which results in approximately 700 jump wings being awarded annually(U.S. Air Force photo/Tech.
