ALT1:... that Jack G. Downing brought back parachute training for operations officers, reasoning that "ordinary people are not inclined to jump out of an airplane, and we are not looking for ordinary people"? Source: The Washington Post
Overall: New article, solid sourcing and all requirements met. Earwig only picked up false positives (date spans, quotes and agency names). The hooks are cited and both are pretty interesting although I'm partial to ALT1 personally. BuySomeApples (talk) 07:39, 29 July 2021 (UTC)
