During World War II, the U.S. Airborne units played a key part in some of the most important battles the U.S. Army fought in Europe. Famous units such as the 13th, 17th, 82nd and 101st Airborne Divisions made a name for themselves in combat in many different areas, including France on and after D-Day, Bastogne and Holland, to name a few. In the Pacific, the 11th Airborne Division carried out the brunt of the airborne operations.
