America's Guard of Honor

American paratroopers - Devils in Baggy Pants - pop up from nowhere and we never know how they strike next. Seems like they're everywhere.
Extract from Dead Enemy Officer's Diary


Dedicated to the memory of all paratroopers and glidermen. Their courage and valor in battle set the standard for all American fighting men.
Airborne all the way!
