Landing in a rough field makes a pilot appreciate a suspension on the
landing gear. Landing faster in rough field makes a pilot REALLY
appreciate a suspension on the landing gear. A well done suspension can
reduce injury some crash situations, but I don't know if the gear in
question was designed to do that.

My understanding is that Dick having survived a few crashes was a big
believer and building strong crash worthy aircraft.
This was one of the reasons that nearly all of his designs had the
Oleo Strut Landing Gear.
I am sure it saved him from further injury in some of his adventures.
I have done at least one landing where I was very glad to have it.
