Today during a practice jump at MacDill Air Force base, one of the Special Ops paratroopers somehow got blown off course and ended up underwater. He died later at Tampa General Hospital.
I can't imagine what his friends and family must be going through, my heart really goes out to them.
This has hit entirely too close to home for me. I always worry when Chris has a jump, but I guess the reality of him being hurt has never really hit me. I couldn't stop shaking for about 30 minutes after I read the news article, and I haven't been able to get it out of my head all day. I am just, for the first time ever, so thankful he is deployed right now because he certainly would have been on that jump had he been home today.
