[edit]DescriptionRobert Giggie Packs a Drogue Parachute, circa 1968.jpg |
English: "Packing Chute: Marine Corporal Robert T. Giggie, 21 (Cape Girardeau, Missouri) packs a drogue parachute in the tail of an F-4B Phantom. As a plane captain with Marine Fighter Attack Squadron 115 [VMFA-115], he repacks the chutes after the jet has landed. The parachute is used by the F-4B upon touch down on the Chu Lai runway to slow the aircraft. A small chute, attached to a spring, pulls the larger parachute out of the recess when it is released by the pilot (official USMC photo by Staff Sergeant P. L. Stacy)."
