The Mysterious Sky Divers Of Brownfield
A narrator visits Terry County Airport to watch local sky divers from Texas Tech Texas State and nearby units. He describes disciplined training a jump master on each flight and the solitary peril of parachute dropping with comments from a Odessa attorney wife named Nancy about her husband choosing sky diving over her. The piece ends with reflections on fate and mortality and a storm approaching as the divers depart.
