nimbev,
when we went to para wedge dropping with door bundles and then the troops on the same run you did indeed need a big DZ. Would not be the first time the 'red' has come on with 3/4 paras to go. They went anyway as there was no realistic way to stop them. As you infer the troops did not like the long walk back to retrieve the kit. When were you on the 'K' ?
