BECKLEY -- Several people gathered at the Raleigh County Airport to see Congressman Nick J. Rahall jump from the sky.
The Congressman joined the U.S. Army Parachute Team, the "Golden Knights". After the jump, Rahall was ready for a second jump.
"It was exhilarating. Most exciting moment of my life and to see the beautiful West Virginia mountains and hills from the perspective that I did the first time ever, from that perspective was truly out of this world," said Rahall.
The jump was part of the Friends of Coal Auto Fair. Rahall says it was a bold way for him to show his continued support for those who serve the coal industry and our country. |
