Excerpt from Stephen E. Ambrose - Band Of Brothers
"The first men step up to the open door. All the men had been ordered to look out at the horizon, not straight down, for obvious psychological reasons. They had also been taught to place their hands on the outer edge of the door, never on the inside ........................... If he tried to steady himself by putting his hands on the inside, twelve men behind couldn't push the fellow out of there, such the power of fear."
