RIP Hold

Post by Dodge_This »

My husband grad. from Airborne School on Friday, and they told them that they won't get picked up for RIP until Thursday. After that, they will be in RIP for 3 weeks.

Is this normal? Also, just kinda curious to what they will be doing while in RIP hold.

Yes, it is normal. Probably yard work, painting or chute shakeout, getting parachutes that those in airborne school use ready to be repacked for jumping again.
