Yes you will.



I have 163 military static line jumps and 250+ free fall civilian hops.
It's fun and the folks you jump with are a very interesting corss
section of society.

Just curious: roughly how many /military/ people die in simple training or
practice jumps (non-combat or test flights) per year? Not many, I'd guess.

Civilian 'for-fun' jumpers do not have a particularly good record.
