Other Memories In 1969, while I was stateside, I was recruited by Chief Gene Gagliardi, team leader for the US exhibition Parachute Team ?Leap Frogs.? Initially I was given a six month trial. Before I left the team in 1972 for another duty assignment I was the team leader. I qualified HALO (High Altitude Low Opening) and HAHO (High Altitude High Opening) with my highest jump with oxygen at 20,000 feet.
