I found another Houston area brewery to place a Geocache near!
Project Halo brewing is wildly popular and was once located in this endcap, but due to that popularity they needed more space and are now located by my other Collaborative Altitute geocache.
HALO, an acronym for “High Altitude Low Opening,” refers to an aeronautic procedure used by soldiers who must quickly exit the aircraft. It is among the most dangerous maneuvers a soldier can make, and one should never take it lightly. HALO is also referred to as MFF, “Military Free Fall.”
It is a method of delivering and extracting soldiers, cargo and equipment through the air using a paratrooper, helicopter, or glider. It is a military technique to penetrate an enemy territory with extensive ground-to-air or sea-to-air defenses. It involves the use of high-flying aircraft that drops its cargo at an altitude that is higher than the range of enemy defenses. In other words, the plane drops its load at high altitudes and low speeds to minimize exposure to enemy fire.
The jump is from an aircraft high above the ground, typically at high altitudes and low temperatures. Once the parachutist has reached a sufficiently low height, they pull their ripcord, and the parachute deploys, catching them mid-fall. The parachute opens so the parachutist can touch down as gently as possible. These maneuvers require a great deal of attention, concentration, and skill.
