Parapack after test drop in England

1945-02-14

A streamlined parapack is shown after a test drop somewhere in England. The cone is still fastened to the bundle with one side broken loose, permitting free escape of the chute. This cone stays with the pack all through the flight, preventing any injuries to retrievers from a free falling cone. 14 February 1945.
