    I served in the 82nd back in the 90's. Those were the most formative years of my life! It was like basic training every day. You had a copy of Army Regulation 670-1 in your back pocket, black spit shine boots, and a neatly pressed uniform topped off with the maroon beret. We did the Airborne shuffle every morning for PT, and again in the evenings, leaving the bar or some club. I miss those days. To all those who served in this unit: Thank You! Eighty Deuce, Airborne All the Way!

    Bragging time:
    At my hardware store last week I met the first 82nd Airborne WWII Veteran. My Great Uncle served and died beside this man so I know most of what he was tasked with. All I did was cut a key for him but I was amazed and all of the books and research I had done on it left my mind because of my amazement. I tried to express my gratitude but I am disappointed in myself for how little I said.
    I hope to see him again and I probably will but I need to prepare for that meeting.

      @bobspalding2477 7 місяців тому +2

      ⁠@@TheDangerZone-kz8nlThey’re not 😂 (Been there done that.)
      Few thing to clear up for you, Special Forces isn’t a designation umbrella term. It’s an Army unit, just like the 75th is a unit and the 82nd is a unit. Like “US Army 3rd Group Special Forces.” And they have a rigorous selection and 2 year long training pipeline.
      SF is a part of SOF (Special Operation Forces, which is the term you’re looking for) along with SEALs, Rangers, PJs etc.
      SEALs and Rangers are not “Special Forces” they’re SOF. That would be like calling a Ranger a SEAL. They’re both SOF, but a SEAL is not a Ranger and vice versa.
      The 82nd isn’t a part of SOF, for a few reasons but primarily Function, Size and budget.
      There is no selection, tens of thousands of fresh recruits can pass the very easy Airborne School and go directly to the 82nd. Which is where function comes in.
      Where SOF takes years of training and building the right soldier for the job, either designed for or resulting in smaller teams; the 82nd maintains mostly competent soldiers for massive Airborne insertions on a conventional battlefield. This includes Privates with little training. It’s an overwhelming numbers game.
      With that said; that function is absolutely important, and the unit is professional, and very good at what they do and were designed to do. We trained hard, worked hard, and spent a lot of time on stupid shit and duties…because it’s a massive regular Army unit, not even remotely resembling SOF. We were certainly lethal, and did everything we could to bring everyone up to speed, but are a blunt instrument. Infantry. Too many soldiers, not enough budget and time for highly specialized training to be a scalpel.

      @@Tsa19858 I wouldn’t go as far as a selection for line companies, but we did have a selection for the scout platoon (recce/sniper section) up in HHC. On the line, the NCOs should be solid enough to get new troopers rolling.
      As for Marines, idk. They do their thing and we do ours. We worked with them a few times overseas and I was either wildly impressed or SMFH 🤦‍♂️ high highs and low lows, but that’s how it goes for any unit that has to split training and pulling 10 other duties.

Lots has changed, much remains the same. The culture, the passion, the discipline, and the esprit de corp, all remain. I met General Flynn not long ago, greeted him with an "All the Way, Sir" and it was returned with a, ".....and then some trooper."(I was representing with my 82nd Airborne hat).

    GenX Deuce Troop here, served in the 82nd in the 90s! Best damn unit and job I'd ever had. The 82nd taught you from the outset, accountability of self and other, responsibility of self and to hold others to theirs. My leaders from the top down were men I'd go to hell and back for. I miss Fort Bragg (I refuse to call it Fort Liberty! Y'all Legs can fuck off with your PC bo'shit!), I miss the sky and thank you to the Good Lord for allowing me to have the ability to stay in touch with the Brothers I'd served with.
    If you're a young man today and want to become a real man, march your Leg ass to a recruiter, earn the title of Airborne and get Ft. Bragg in your contract. There is no sharper soldier in uniform than a Paratrooper. None.
    I raise my War Goblet to you, oh St. Michael, patron saint of the Airborne, I chant my war cry, "Til Vallhal!, Til Vallhal!, Til Vallhal! and look to the sky, longing to be in her warm embrace again.
    Airborne! Earned, not issued!

They wreak shit so they kinda earn a mention. I also noticed that Green Ramp has not changed since the '90's. Even still has the stain on it from the accident that melted my friend's humvee top onto him when a C-130 and F-16 collided (the 16 bailed out but his plane hit the FULLY LOADED green ramp). That fireball melted everything...killed some guys too.

    Let’s get this straight, only infantry units are the only ones that do this type of training, the rest of them are support elements. After the CQB, it’s artillery in the video

    • @volcom1niner
      @volcom1niner 2 роки тому +4

      not true at all. support elements jumped and could join things like alpha echelon or many other units. Which I was a part of. We had Medics, gun bunnies all kinds of "support" right next to them. If you were really one of us you'd know that. If you are 82nd you are a combat unit first, everything else is secondary.

    • @volcom1niner
      @volcom1niner 2 роки тому +3

      By the way some of those jumps were basically "fun" jumps and could have been made up of any MOS's but regardless all serious training and could be used in infinite situations. If you think 11B are the only ones that jump behind enemy lines your mistaken.

    After around 20-30 jumps you'll eventually realize you don't actually need those leg harness straps jacked up so tight you can barely even walk. Are they attached? Are they snug? Well good.... that's all you need. None of that stuff needs to be cutting into your skin or making it so you can barely walk....you won't magically fall out of the rig just because you don't have everything so tight it hurts....nor will the parachute opening...rip your body apart? I guess that's what people were afraid of? I have around 120 jumps (nothing too wild) and would even see experienced jump masters who would tighten their stuff down so hard they could barely move. If you didn't realize this early on you went through a bunch of totally unnecessary pain.

    • @RivetGardener

      Yeah for sure! When I became a Jumpmaster mine were always hanging for comfort. It scared the troops as why we (jumpmasters) would be so casual. We knew the deal.
