    Soldiers from the Airborne Test Force were testing a potential new glide modification system for the RA-1 military free fall parachute during a practice jump just before Yuma Proving Ground Commander Col. John Nelson’s change of command ceremony. The test, which began in May and ended in July, consisted of 228 jumps.
