He had spent his last few years flying off of aircraft carriers in Mediterranean, Caribbean, and North Atlantic Sea logging more than 250 missions with a heavy attack squadron armed with nuclear weapons during Cold War.
Doug accepted the challenge and climbed onto the step of a small Cessna, twenty five hundred feet over Valley Forge Pennsylvania, and began a career in the then primitive sport of skydiving that would span more than fifty years.
During that time he made more than five thousand jumps while logging twenty four hours in freefall. An instructor and jumpmaster Doug personally trained over 20,000 first time jumpers including future Austronauts, John Kennedy, Jr. and Chris Brinkley.
He lives in New Jersey and performs demonstration jumps with this team, The Fallin’ Angels.ver menos
