The new U94 MFF PTT Kit features several improvements.
They’ve recessed the auxiliary input port connection for a strong seal and improved strain relief to hold up to the strain of parachute deployment.
TEA has also improved the ergonomics of the remote PTT to provide a more contoured fit around the user’s hand.
I saw this yesterday and I’m still laughing.
Although there are a few missing, the History of Operational Parachute Jumps hosted by the Special Forces Association is a great read. Its international scope goes back to 1939 and is updated with many of the most recent jumps. The list not only categorizes the date, location and type of airborne operation but also mentions the forces involved.
LAV, who is a former 10th Group guy, sent this “History of the 10th SFG(A) HALO and ODA-8” to me and seeing how I am a huge history buff, I thought I’d share it with all of you.
Although it’s a very specialized piece of equipment, the “yamakO2” is a comfortable, soft, stretchable, skullcap which allows MFF parachutists to pre-breath without a helmet by offering the ability to attach an oxygen mask.
Just sit back, relax and pre-breath in comfort.
Offered in size Small/Medium and Large/XLarge, MultiCam.

Happy Boxing Day to our British Friends. A tip of the beret to you.
Here’s some motivational video of SF and support personnel conducting airborne operations.
Thanks Karl!
