In March 2012 we had the honour to participate in the Joint Op Cope Tiger 2012 in Thailand. In charge was the Royal Thai Air Force. 2 C-17 and 2 C-130 were provided by the US Air Force. Other particpants: Singapore CDOs and IAO Staff Members Christoph Krammer and Stefan Eicker. We jumped the C-17 by freefall, landed in Lop Buri, were brought back to BGK by C-130, were awarded the RT AF Freefall Wings, were honoured by awarding the C-17 jump certificates to our follow jumpers and joined the party. Our host unit treated us like like VIPs until they ordered us to sing karaoke ...
This was a perfect day! Thank you so much, my friends from the Royal Thai Air Force!
