[nifalse]

Nice song.

iI'm very confused, I didn't think that the U.S had brigades, only regiments.

Could someone please explain ? I've read that Brigades and Regiment's are the same thing, jsut different names.

[Devil3R]

@PoppingSanta Yes they are the same.

@Devil3R

Hahahah why don't they just call it 173rd Airborne Regiment then ? xD
