Spartan first sergeant earns master parachutist badge

First Sgt. Herbert Gill, a jumpmaster and company first sergeant for U.S. Army Alaska’s Headquarters Company, 4th Infantry Brigade Combat Team (Airborne), 25th Infantry Division, walks off Malemute Drop Zone after performing a proficiency jump from a CH-47 Chinook helicopter flown by B Company, 1st Battalion, 52nd Aviation Regiment “Sugar Bears,” on Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson March 6. This was Gill’s 65th parachute jump, and the one which earned him the coveted master parachutist badge – the highest award a jumpmaster can receive. (U.S. Army photo/Sgt. Eric-James Estrada)
