"Paratroops" Make First Jumps From a Captive Baloon
Item
Following a preliminary ground course, England’s parachute troops get their first taste of an actual parachute jump by “taking off” from a basket attached to a captive balloon. The budding ’chutist is hoisted aloft, and upon reachingthe right altitude he steps out into space through a hole in the bottom of the basket which simulates the opening in the fuselage of a plane.
