Best Moment A parachute that I had serviced was used by Captain TJ Owen on April 1,1968, in an emergency bailout from an O2A after being shot down over enemy territory in Vietnam.
Other Memories After about 2 months being assigned to the squadron as a parachute rigger. I was later assigned to the armament shop to work as a combined up loader,down loader, arm and de arm O2A aircraft assigned to 23 TASS, due to the additional manpower needed in the armament shop, to support the added flight schedule during the TET Offensive.
