A jumper has to weigh at least 87
pounds to open a military
parachute.
Charla Gwin made it by 13
pounds. The 5-foot-2 Texas A&M
University junior recently became
the first woman cadet here to earn
airborne wings in Army training.
“I was the first, but It definitely
will not be the last,” declared Gwin,
now of Fort Worth.
She and four male Army ROTC
cadets completed the rigorous
three-week Airborne School at Fort
Benning, Ga. Fourteen women
were among more than 500 who
enrolled. Six women were among
the 430 graduates. The women con
sisted of three Regular Army officers
and three cadets.
“There were no blue and pink
doors up there,” commented Gwin.
“They kept saying the strong will
make it, the weak won’t.”
Conditions were less than ideal
for the training, consisting of a week

training, tower training and
jumps. Rain, snow, ice
were abundant.
Turbulent weather, inclw
tornado watches, grounded

“We’re all extremely pleased'

The blonde, green-eyed Ifj
A6cM cadet grew up in a
family. She attended schooli
Texas, Alaska, Kansas, Louisi
Mississippi, Virginia, on
and in Germany.
“Texas A&M is my 13th scln
she smiled, “but I’m not supeis
ous.”
Gwin said there’s a mythak
the 400 women who have
through airborne school since
with thousands of men.
“The myth is that womens
borne is easier. That’s not true,
assured.
“Women are completely ii
grated with males for training,
explained. Whether runninl
three-mile course or quick-ti
marching to classes, they are a
gether.
“It created a problem for
with my short legs,” Gwin grins
“To keep up with that 6-foot
when we were quick-timing
tween classes, I had to donl
time.“
