It took us 4 jumps and a lot of preparation on the ground to get this picture. Harry Hopkins who is a nationally known captain organized this. It was first envisioned by Jerilyn and Ray Cordova who are firefighters in Corpus Christi. They wanted to do something spectacular on this 10th anniversary to honor their fallen comrades, so they asked Harry to get the best skydivers available to achieve this very difficult formation. Before we jumped we had a meeting to give tribute to the firefighters who died along with all the others.This was accomplished at Skydive San Marcos on Sept 11 in Fentress, Tx.More pics can be seen at http://ireport.cnn.com/docs/DOC-673024
