    For more than a quarter of a century, the Military Freefall School (MFFS), part of the United States Army John F. Kennedy Special Warfare Center and School, has utilized U.S. Army Yuma Proving Ground’s vast ranges to train thousands of the military’s most elite paratroopers.

    Since the opening of one of the world’s largest vertical wind tunnels here in 2014, the MFFS’s mission has increased significantly. Earlier today, ground was broken for the construction of a two bay hangar for the Special Operations Aviation Command flight detachment that has supported training operations of the MFFS for the past seven years.
