Correct Answer
D. 180
Explanation
A free fall parachutist must perform a free fall jump within 180 days before being considered non-current. This means that if they go longer than 180 days without performing a jump, their skills and abilities may have deteriorated, making it unsafe for them to continue jumping without undergoing additional training and practice.

This means that they will not receive additional pay for participating in high-risk parachute jumps. The other statements about being entitled to HALO pay and occupying a J-coded unit manpower document position are unrelated to the entitlement of HDIP.
32.
Which of the follwoing is not a cause for permanent disqualification?
Correct Answer
B. Disenrollment from the military free fall course
Explanation
Disenrollment from the military free fall course is not a cause for permanent disqualification because it specifically refers to being removed or withdrawn from the course, rather than being permanently disqualified from performing jump duties. While failure to satisfactorily perform a jump duty, no longer desiring to perform required jump duties, and voluntarily requesting termination of parachutist service can all lead to permanent disqualification, being disenrolled from the military free fall course does not automatically result in permanent disqualification.
33.
