Gao Yang didn't know how often airborne soldiers in other places parachuted, but Grolev said that during his service, he caught Russia's most economically strained period, so their parachuting training intensity varied greatly. At most, they could jump four or five times a month, and at the least, just twice a year.
As for Gao Yang and his group, they jumped four times a day, at least four times. In the later stages, after gaining significant parachuting experience, they even added two very dangerous night jumps.
Generally, having around a hundred jumps was considered a lot for non-professional paratroopers, definitely marking them as experienced. However, Gao Yang and his team managed to hit a hundred jumps from zero experience in just twenty-three days.
