My 82nd Airborne Division

This is a video about the 82nd Airborne Division. I served as an Airborne Infantryman with the 82nd while I was in the Army. This video was shown at the 82nd Airborne museum on Ardennes back in the mid '90s till whenever. I used to watch this when I would go there, and my mom bought it for me. I was born with paratrooper blood and finally realized my dreams when I joined the Army in 1997. This is a little dated...heck, it was a little dated when I was in....but it still is a cool video and should make some people stand up and feel proud. Airborne!

Hey whats up guys, cool video, im lookin to get into the 82nd, what the best way in, 11bravo with airborne in your contract? thanks

Yeah....pretty much for sure you'd get to the 82nd with 11x + airborne. You might get up to Alaska or Italy, but probably Ft. Bragg with the 82nd.... best of luck. AIRBORNE!

Thank you for uploading this video. It brings back many fond memories. Best part in the video was, "Airborne is a state of mind. A toughness that strikes the word quit completely out of one's vocabulary." It really was a life lesson that I carried back into the civilian world after I left the Army and there were times that I needed that strength. It was more than just jumping out of planes. (I continue to skydive now, but so what.) RIP all our brothers that have made the ultimate sacrifice.

Hey I want to be in the Special Forces 18F in the long run, but they say I shouldn't do the 18X cause no people from the Special Forces likes new fresh recruits straight from basic. I was wondering if I should go the 82nd Airborne or 101st Airborne? Which one should I follow the path of?
