This is a very cool Video of Staff Sgt. Travis Surber, a native of Franklin County, VA and a paratrooper with the 173rd Brigade Combat Team's Battle Company of the 2nd Battalion 503rd Infantry Regiment parachutes out of a C-130 Hercules Transport Aircraft and into the Ukraine sky. This marks the first time the "Sky Soldiers" of the 173rd have jumped in Ukraine and they'll be training and conducting multinational airborne operations, a situational training exercise and a field training exercise here from through 5 Aug. as part of Rapid Trident 2011.

  • I like when he says, "Ya give me a couple of grenades." LOL at 0:08

  • @3rdID8487 thats actually my squad leader, and he says "give me a couple of extra hands" for the video purpose

  • @kgravines LOL sounds like grenades, but I take your word for it. I would like the grenades better.. :) Thanks for clearing that up.
