The one thing I would tell the young guys is never jump off or out of anything that isn't on fire. I jumped out of too many helicopters that were several feet off the ground on Combat assaults and off too many other things such as my buddy's sailboat that cause me a lot of knee issues now.

Throw in bad choices of foot gear, Way too many years of wearing shoes that didn't fit right or have proper arch support.

I don't know if you still can but you used to be able to go to Whites in Spokane and have a cast taken of your foot to have work boots made. they molded the sole to match your foot and the guys who wore them never had foot problems or too many leg issues that weren't self inflicted.
