During Operation Asia 2007 we will train and jump with Special Forces
units in Cambodia and Thailand. Since SEVERAL MORE JUMPMASTER TEAMS
from other Asian nations have already confirmed their participation,
this operation will become a true exchange of international Airborne

operations in Thailand with unprecedented success. Next year we will
change the hosting country. During Operation Asia 2007 we will train
with the most professional Thai units and jump from the C-130

pretty beaches and unique culture, please join us this year.
