Here's THBRD14 taking kind of an odd route into Atlantic City: south from Rochester, past me in New Castle, continue south almost to Dover, bank left over Delaware River/Bay to cross NJ, then head back north to ACY.

Leapfest 2023
Was watching that vid again and was real pro finish vid.Credit I guess to the Army Staff Sgts who taped
and edited it with sound etc. No wonder filmed 8/7 and released a week later.Bet it took a while to create that.
Some happy team jumpers with nice awards and sure most got their event Jump Wings.

Very nice. When I got up early this am a Travis C-17 TINCAN was just finishing up drops at 4am.
Guess 82nd Airborne pulled a all nighter. C-17's look like Comets in those pics

Short day of photography at KLFI. C-17, too many Raptors and Talon to count, and a few bottom shots of a USNTPS Talon. View attachment 146756View attachment 146758View attachment 146759

Great shots! I was in Yorktown that morning watching the USS Gravely sail out. There was a C-130 possibly out of Patuxent doing circles arround the peninsula.
