0451 Air Delivery Specialist (Parachute Rigger), USMC
I am Sgt in the United States Marine Corps and am an 0451 Air Delivery Specialist (Parachute Rigger). I have been a Marine since 22 May 1995. I have served in Air Delivery Platoons both in Camp LeJeune and Okinawa, Japan. Our mission is to provide the Aerial Delivery of supplies and equipment when ground re-supply is not possible. I pack parachutes and rig cargo to be airdropped. We can drop something as small as a box of MRE's to 5 Tons, bridge pieces, and Howitzers. You name it-we can rig it and drop it. I am also a qualified Static Line Jumpmaster and Pathfinder responsible for ensuring that each jumper's equipment and parachute are properly rigged/inspected. I also rig cargo to be lifted externally and can establish and control Helicopter Landing Sites and Drop Zones as a
Pathfinder.
