Paratroopers float to earth as part of the re-invigorated Saturday Proficiency Jump Program, Nov. 21, 2015, on Sicily Drop Zone. The once popular program was restarted in October to allow paratroopers to build additional proficiency and confidence for airborne operations. In November the program continued to build momentum with an additional 150 jumpers. Families and friends gathered on Sicily Drop Zone to watch the daytime spectacle and share in the unique U.S. Army paratrooper experience. (U.S. Army photo by Staff Sgt.
