Back-Tracking by Carl Green D-11761

Back-Tracking highlights interesting, lesser-known moments in skydiving through the years. These photos are often unearthed from boxes in the attic, old photo albums and dimly lit DZ closets. Please send submissions to communications@uspa.org.


Anne Henderson (left) and Jonathan Yonke join for a "lips only" engagement kiss over Bryan, Texas, in late 1994. This was Henderson's 1,000th and Yonke's 2,000th skydive.
