Welcome to Alabama!

[AJChenMPH]

FORT BENNING, home of the Army's paratroop school, is near Columbus, GA., but its primary drop zone lies across the Chattahoochee River in neighboring Alabama - as I discovered when I made my first jump. After my parachute had opened safely, I looked around and spotted a sign, visible only to descending jumpers: "Welcome to Alabama - Drop in Anytime."

I don't remember seeing that, but of course, I guess I was just glad to be in one piece after each of my five jumps.
