Can recoil damage the eye?

Well Happy Birthday Jim.

Your right about old age ain't for sissies
I look at age as just a frame of mind. Your only as old as how you think you are
But I'm starting to believe the mirror when I shave in the morning that I'm starting to look pretty old for just being 26

Jim I made a lot of parachute jumps, static lines and Halo Jumps out of Airplanes and HU-1-Bs and never got a scratch coming through trees and rugs landings. But just recently I cant even jump over the side of a boat 6' high with out breaking my foot and getting a compressor fracture of the lower back.
I'm beginning to believe that mirror on the wall.
You have three years on me so stay well.

Kurt
