    Description

    Up for auction is a used Military Drouge Parachute.  I have tried to research this and have not come up with much.  I asked on some forums and was told that this is the style used by the US forced now.  I don't have any information to back that up.  The chute is apx. 3' in diameter and has risers every 10" that are numbered in a bluish ink.  I did not sere any other markings.  All of the rigging appears to be intact.
    For those that don't know.
