Patrick J. O'Kelley

Triple Canopy Patrick J. O'Kelley

In the US Army there are only a few men who are able to earn all three tabs worn on the uniform, the Airborne Tab, the Ranger Tab and the Special Forces Tab. Those men are known by many terms, but one of them is "Triple Canopy". These are three stories from the journey of Patrick O'Kelley, a "triple tabber". One from Airborne - the story of being a sniper during the invasion of the island of Grenada. One from Ranger - the story of the loss of a close friend during a training accident. One from Special Forces - the story of operating behind Iraqi lines during Operation Desert Storm.
