    The Paratroopers are regular airborne soldiers who function as (airborne infantry). This means that they are elite infantrymen who are capable of being PARA dropped behind enemy lines, from where they can make way for the regular infantry, and connect with them.

      Eh not necessarily they weren’t always connecting with infantry for example Normandy invasions the 101st was told to sabotage behind German lines going through Africa & Italy through allied territory to then go into Normandy at the time to then get to blowing up German defensive shit to make it easier on allied infantry to get up that beach head and take & secure land. So they were used in what would be considered special operations at the time but special forces essentially wasn’t a concept at the time

    2nd Lieutenant George C. Rice was a Supply Officer for the 10th Armored Division. When he found out that the Airborne was woefully under-equipped for battle due to being rushed from Mourmelon to reinforce the Allied defense against the German advance at the Battle of the Bulge, he, of his own volition, took a jeep, loaded it with as many blankets, rations, grenades, and ammo cans as he could, and raced to resupply the 506th before the Germans arrived.
    He completed a total of 9 supply runs, the 7th and 8th of which occurred _during_ the German attack, and the ninth and final one was made _after_ the Germans had completely encircled the entire 101st Division, meaning he had to drive _through_ the German lines to get to the soldiers and then _again_ to get back out.
    He was preparing a tenth run when he was given a direct order to stand down. For his bravery, Rice was awarded the Bronze Star and nominated for the Medal of Honor.

      I wish there was a deleted scene where Fallon stops for a nap and they drop Jay Leno in from a plane to get the mission back on track. There are episodes of “Jay Leno’s Garage” on UA-cam that get more views than Fallon’s “Tonight Show” and it’s literally only appealing to automotive enthusiasts. Leno wasn’t constantly hilarious or anything when he had the Tonight Show but he wasn’t trying to be, he let his guests have the spotlight and did good, solid interviews. Fallon seems so needy for all the attention to be on him it’s just off-putting.

    I think BofB did a great disservice to the 28th ID by portraying them in this way. If it hadn't been for the 28th and specifically the 110th and 109th Regiments, Bastogne would likely have fallen before the 101st Division got there. The division was rebuilding after sustaining over 6000 casualties in the Hurtgen forest the month prior and was covering a 20-mile front when the Germans attacked. The 110th took over 2700 casualties in the first three days of the battle. They didn't run, they traded lives for time. They defended several key crossroads between the Our and Clef RIvers(Hosingen, Consthum, Marnach) against three German divisions before being overwhelmed. They also denied the Clerf River crossing at Clervaux for several days, which threw off the German timetables and delayed them just long enough for the 101st to deploy around Basogne.

    Not well mentioned in Histories was that the men depicted retreating in disorder were most likely survivors from elements of Team Cherry 10th Armored and CCR 9th Armored Division, plus troops from the 28th Infantry Division that were caught between two German forces and pounded to bits by artillery on the Longvilly Road near Margeret.

    Alamo in the Ardennes is the book about all the men who sold their lives dearly slowing the Germans down so that the 101rst could have time to get to Bastogne. Without those forgotten heroes, Bastogne would have turned out differently and more men would have died to retake the territory lost.

    My grandfather served with the 101st during World War II. He was trained as a paratrooper but the Army placed him with the 327th Glider Infantry Regiment instead. He nearly lost his toes to frostbite during the Battle of the Bulge. He had to be airlifted to England in order to save his toes.

    My grandpa was a paratrooper. He had a brevard golf hat he wore that I found the other day. I lost my mom at the same time I found it so it’s been a big comfort. I’m really thankful for what he did. Mom used to say he could work the field all day, before my health declined I aspired to be the same. She said he saved a life of another in his company and was shot when he carried the other man back. They hit 20 miles behind enemy lines and had to make their way back to the front because of a bad jump. He received a Purple Heart I think and came back to the area and opened a radio station.

    Reminds me of a quote attributed to then-Colonel Chesty Puller at the battle of Chosin Reservoir in December 1950 when told he and his men were outnumbered by 26-1 by Chi-Com soldiers: “We've been looking for the enemy for some time now. We've finally found him. We're surrounded. That simplifies things" And: “All right, they're on our left, they're on our right, they're in front of us, they're behind us...they can't get away this time.”

    What they are doing is showing the talk of the the day the moment the paratroopers historically found out a ss panzer division was stationed nearby to do its repair or refuel round and the germans put it in to fight next to other rag tag divisions who fought in normandy discovering they are heavily outgunned and outmanned wich is historically correct

    Good god how fucking terrifying it must’ve been to be told by the soldiers walking in the other direction “you need to get out of here, but if you’re going to go fight, fine but take all the ammo I have because you are going to need it.” and the paratroopers don’t skip a fucking beat. They’re told there’s thousands of Germans with artillery, tanks and all kinds of heavy weaponry and the paratroopers just do not give a fuck literally just asking for more ammo to get rid of these Germans and be on to the next fight. These guys are absolute warriors and their ability to just not be frightened by overwhelming numbers and seemingly impossible odds is so commendable. Also makes you damn proud and happy these are/were the guys who were fighting for us, I couldn’t imagine being a German knowing the Americans are coming from one side and the Russians are coming from the other and there is simply no escape you either fight the horde of highly trained soldiers coming or you die trying. Which is arguably so much worse of a situation to be in, but fuck em they’re nazis.
