Africa jump

I believe one of these guys is the president of Mali.





Landing in a nice lava rock field.
Optimal jump zone, no doubt...




General Haas, the Special Operations Commander
in charge of Africa.

African Soldiers

I'll do my best describing these pictures, I'll know more when Sean gets home...

Here are some pictures of the closing jump ceremony in Africa. Sean was in charge of putting this on. Sean was a jumpmaster for the ceremony and spotted a mistake BG Haas made while hooking in his static line before his jump. Sean said the BG had a great time and gave him a coin, he also told Sean that it was one of the most professionally run jumps he had been on. Luckily no one got hurt on the jump, Sean was worried about this jump because they were jumping into either an iron ore or lava rock jump zone. Sean did bump his head pretty hard, they were concerned about a mild concussion, and got a bad bruise on his hip from the jump.

Overall, it sounds like he rocked it!
