This is the traditional beginning of the days event's at the Tico Warbird Airshow at the Space Coast Regional Airshow in Titusville, FL. The jumper is Sgt. Mike Collins of the Army Black Daggers or the Silver Wings. I'm not really shure which it is as there was another Parachute demonstration team there as well. He jumped from a C-47 that was involved in the D-Day invasion, Market Garden, and I believe one more jump as well as being involved in the Bastogne relief drop and the Berlin Airlift. From there it was transferred to several different countries as well as being owned by the KIng and Queen of Denmark before being sold into a collectors hands then finally being sold to the Valiant Air Command Museum in Titusvill, FL
