"Airborne" is more than a qualification—it's a legacy.

National Airborne Day commemorates the Army's first official parachute jump on August 16, 1940, and recognizes the generations of paratroopers who have answered the call to serve.

To everyone who has earned the parachutist badge, thank you for your courage, commitment, and service.

Airborne!
