Members of the U.S. Army Parachute Team “Golden Knights” wait by the landing zone as Sgt. Jonathan Lopez, a native of Dorado, Puerto Rico, and demonstration parachutist assigned to the Golden Knights, as he descends from the nearly cloudless El Paso sky during the 31st annual Amigo Airsho on Biggs Army Airfield Oct. 21, 2012. The Golden Knights date back to 1959 when the Army put together a 13-person team to compete in the sport of skydiving. Since then they have been performing throughout the country as a recruiting tool.
