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.
