The Airborne sergeant's voice rang out confidently as he explained what to do in case of a parachute malfunction. “If your main parachute should fail to deploy, don't panic-pull the handle of your auxiliary parachute. Should your auxiliary parachute fail to fill with air, don't panic-pull it in toward your body and then vigorously throw it away from yourself. Should your auxiliary chute again fail to deploy, don't panic-vigorously repeat this process." He paused dramatically, looking intently into our eyes. Then with a slight mischievous grin he slowly stated, “Should this also fail, don't panic. You'll have the rest of your life to get your parachute to deploy."
