I know this place well. I made my 6th jump, and my first night jump in March 1969 into the middle of the triangle shaped airfield (shown at top of picture. I spent two weeks in hell, eating goat jerky and crawling around in frozen mud. I completed phase 1 and went on to the next phase of my SFTG training (weapons). Hate to break it to 3rdman but Panama is a way south of this place. I'm sure with what I've said, Sean knows that I could name this place, but why spoil the fun for others. As another hint to those that read my comment, the WACO Glider training was conducted at this location. MGW
