The 82nd Airborne Division earned its nickname, “America’s Guard of Honor,” in World War II—and this footage shows exactly why. In January 1946, just seven days after disembarking the Queen Mary, following three years of warfighting against Nazi tyranny, the 82nd paratroopers marched through the streets of New York City: Disciplined. In step. In cadence. Sharp. Drilled. Heel-to-toe precision. A proud body moving as one. #AmericasGuardOfHonor #SloppyIsNotTradition #AATW #army250 | The History of

On June 6, 1944, forever on known as D-Day, the 82nd Airborne Division jumped into history as more than 12,000 All American glider and parachute infantry took part in the Airborne assault over Normandy, France. As they landed among the farmhouses and fields, they quickly realized they were not facing their enemy alone. French Patriots quickly came to their aid, often risking their lives to assist their would-be liberators. Under normal circumstances, the All American Division would be in France
