[Milsurplus] Re: PRC 10 as in flight radio

[BOEING377@aol.com]

P 10 of the Nov 2003 issue of PARACHUTIST, a skydiving magazine, there is a 
letter and some photos from Paul Herrick. He was in Aggressor Force military 
freefall test jumps at Ft Campbell KY on Sept 22, 1959. He tells of having a "30 
lb PRC 10 tactical radio" strapped under the reserve chute with antenna and 
handset attached "for use under canopy if desired". The photo shows the PRC 10 
mounting details. It is in a canvas container with various straps. The jumps 
were made at night from an H 34 helo at 8000 ft.
