Parachute jumping with the Crown Prince of Jordan
Excellent reading.
This is REALLY OT for ARocket but such a nicely written tale that I
thought I'd risk sharing it with you. I know some here are
parachutists so ... . Well worth reading even if you've never jumped
and never plan to. For PICList it's just standard OT :-) - READ IT, 
you'll like it.

"And where is the prince who can so afford to cover his country with
troops for its defense, as that ten thousand men descending from the
clouds might not in many places do an infinite deal of mischief before
a force could be brought together to repel them?"

         -Benjamin Franklin

Harsh arc lights splashed their yellow ellipses onto the asphalt,
cutting into the desert night. It was going on 0430 hours ....
