> [@Spiderman](#): > > I believe our guest of dishonor stated they should parachute soldiers in _while on_ motorcycles so they could immediately ride off to their destination. Even if they were to drop them strapped into a Humvee it could, possibly, maybe work but thereā€™s no way a soldier can hold onto a motor cycle all the way down & it would present a hazard below them upon ground impact. That whole plan begins and ends with the paratrooper landing in a tree, or in water, or on an apartment rooftop, or any other place thatā€™s typically not first choice for riding motorcycles. They have enough trouble managing a rifle and 60 pounds of gear. As far as a separate LAPES drop of equipment in an urbanized area like Benghazi, thatā€™s just not a thing. And dropping the troops nearby is a good way to get you Mogadishuā€™d quite promptly. ---
