Joe O'Leary, D-8727, got this month's cover shot of Steven Haskett, Dwight MacArthur and Sam White over the Brazos Valley Paracenter in Bryan, TX.  All four jumpers are members of the Texas A&M University Sport Parachute Club which uses Brazos Valley as its home DZ.  Shortly after taking this shot O'Leary was en route to Spaceland, TX where he took part in an apparent world record 23-stack June 16 (see page 19).
