EXPECTED INJURY RATES FOR EXPERIMENTAL AIRBORNE OPERATIONS

Abstract

Probability of injury for Army paratroopers under conditions of full combat load and unprepared drop zone was estimated to be .006 (standard error = .002, N = 5,253). Tables were computed to allow tests of departure from this rate under experimental conditions involving up to 50 jumpers.
