#if anyone needs me I'll be drowning in some flooded Norman field because of a misdrop incident#you ever wonder how many Dick Winters or Ronald Speirs got just fucking taken out by a stupid accident and never even set foot on the dirt?#how many dudes of that caliber fell out of a glider that disintegrated or landed in the channel because a C-47 got lost#or had the stupid luck to be nailed by flak before they even hit their landing zone and got the green light to jump#anyway#T-5 parachute if anyone is wondering what I want for Christmas
