Pack 'em up! Parachute Riggers (92R) ensure the safety of every paratrooper. They inspect, test, and pack parachutes, their extraction and release systems, and all the associated components of the parachute system. Soldiers in this career are responsible for the safety and repair of all parachute equipment before, during, and after airdrop operations and are responsible for assembling rigging components and securing all the supplies in the aircraft. | U.S. Army Maneuver Center of Excellence

Training the fundamentals never stops. #DYK: Our riggers pack parachutes for every Basic Airborne Course student and paratrooper who complete static line jumps on the installation. Given 300-400 students graduate each iteration of the course and must jump five times to graduate, that’s thousands of parachutes a year! | U.S. Army Maneuver Center of Excellence
