    Ronnie Brinn, a civilian Airman assigned to the 773rd Logistics Readiness Squadron at Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson, Alaska, and a retired U.S. Army first sergeant, talks about container delivery system bundle rigging Aug. 18, 2026. Brinn was inducted into the U.S. Army Quartermaster School's Parachute Rigger Hall of Fame July 27, 2026, for rewriting the military's Sling Load Inspector Certification Course to improve safety and efficiency. Throughout Brinn’s active duty and civil service career, he has trained hundreds of parachute riggers and rigged over 11,500 heavy platforms and container delivery system bundles, demonstrating a lifetime of commitment to the rigger profession.

    An older man wearing a red baseball cap and plaid shirt is examining or handling a large olive-green military-style inflatable boat or raft inside what appears to be a hangar or storage facility. He is leaning over the deflated or partially inflated craft, inspecting it closely. A second person in camouflage clothing is partially visible on the right side of the frame.
    A middle-aged man wearing a red baseball cap with a parachutist/airborne insignia and a plaid shirt stands in front of industrial shelving units stocked with olive drab military-style duffel bags and backpacks. The bags appear to be tagged with identification labels, suggesting an organized storage or collection facility. The setting resembles a military surplus warehouse or a parachute/equipment storage room.

He is gesturing with his right hand while his left hand rests on military-style olive drab straps and harness equipment laid out on a table. The background contains various equipment, shelving, and what appears to be an orange parachute or canopy hanging from the ceiling.
    An older adult male is seated in what appears to be a storage or equipment room surrounded by military-style green duffel bags and gear on shelving units. He is wearing a red baseball cap with an embroidered winged parachutist patch and a blue/red plaid flannel shirt over a dark undershirt. His expression is contemplative as he gazes slightly off-camera.
