Where did you have your best experience conducting airborne operations and why?

Jumping into Panama during Operation Just Cause, to me no other operation, training, or field operation compares to the ease or enjoyment I had during that time of operational duties and experiences.

I would have to say that one of my fondest jump memories was at White Lake, NC. It was one of the last jumps for the students of a JM course we were running, the weather was awesome, the water was just cool enough to feel good but not give you hypothermia. Jumping in shorts, instructor shirt, and dive booties, just an all around awesome time.

Operation Golden Pheasant, and Operation Just Cause are two great jumps. Being the Primary JM on the jump into Gettysburg, a few times, that was cool.  But, many of the Demo jumps into various stadiums and events across the country, are great memories too.
