CG,
Not a MCP comment at all - I just cannot recall the girls doing the para course? Re your 'All Loadie trainees'...standing by to be corrected?
Although rotary was becoming the bias, the Para Course was ultimately two-fold, to undertake - at the time - Loadmaster/dispatch duties on a TS Sqn, and also to provide a degree of empathy with the parachutists, especially the refusals? I'm sure there was a character building argument soaked in there as well?
