I think the problem here is the definition.
A combat jump is basically just a jump into a real combat operation - but it doesn't mean you jump into ground fire, which is my point.
You don't drop paras into fire, it just doesn't happen (anymore).

So the whole point of being under fire while under a canopy is moot.
