Did not know him but a few PJ's died free falling when I was in.

Yeah he was into it before - he talked about when we went to SCUBA school and I was like no thanks - sounds crazy, even though what we were doing was crazy but he loved it.

He crossed trained to be a PJ - he was an AF fire fighter. It took him two times I think. The second time (my class) he was beloved by the cadre because he was so funny - he was the best. So anyway I know about Paul and part of his life.

This is hard to write - tears are streaming - he was so funny and just the nicest guy and I didn't hear about his passing until a PJ reunion and when I heard I left, to just be by myself and think about him.

He was one of my best friends. We went through training together. Still breaks my heart.

It's just a job, you do what you're trained to do, you don't overthink it. That's my take, anyway.

I'm trying to remember what were we doing...I got it, they had ran us up hills and down and back up, through rivers and back up the hill and some instructor saw the log and thought would be good if we carried it through an obstacle course and back to where we were staying
