In Ranger school, Skydive had a reputation as the toughest instructor. He would skip breakfast so he had more room to eat bugs and snakes on patrol, and would put his recruits through hell. They came to appreciate it after their first close-quarters combat, though. Skydive's motto is "train hard and fight easy."
