TA>My eldest son's MOS in the Marines was parachute packer. After
TA>some close instructions and practice they got to pack a chute
TA>on their own; then they had to jump at 5k feet altitude to
TA>reinforce the need to be good at their job (and again now and
TA>again when it pleased the Chief of Operations).

TA>Maybe it might help at NASA if some of the Quality Inspectors
TA>of work on the preparation of shuttles drew some short straws
TA>to be included in the next launch crew ?

 Taht is thew way it was in hte Ship Yards for the First Dive after
 constructiom or Overhaul. All the Sub Related Shop Masters and their
 Best Technicians went down on the USS Treasher off New London Conn.
