Thank you for this excellent program on the 82nd Airborne's objectives for D-Day and Normandy. My grandfather, wuth te 82nd, would be pleased.
This is a wonderful program, thank you very much. My father Bud Prendergast was there. He received both the Silver and Bronze Star. RIP Bud, I’m so proud of you.
Amazing young men who risked everything for others freedom from tyranny !! Something we should never ever forget for Freedom and democracy are so very special things .
This is a wonderful testimony to the U. S. 82nd Paratroopers! It’s very well done! These men rose to the occasion in freeing Europe from tyranny which had ravaged on for almost 5 years. Their bravery and accomplishments live on!
My Grandpa, Henry Kilburn, was in the 82nd Airborne.
"Looking for a safe place? Well, buddy, just pull in behind me - I'm the 82nd Airborne and this is as far as the bastards are going,"
WHOAH my friend
My father was part of this in 82 Airborne a paratrooper.
I wished I really wished people in The big cities especially everybody 40 years and younger would be required to watch this and understand what was sacrificed so they could enjoy freedom and how it is Being taken away from them slowly but surely

They had been training for quite a while
82nd had seen combat in sicily
A special breed of men tempting fate yet succeeded in
Their objectives
The french paras in indochina
Had the most combat jumps
156 between 1946 and 1954!
If the political situation was
Different the 82 and 101 could
Have joined them instead of
Waiting until the 1960s!
Which was a helicopter war
The french only had limited ones used for evacuating wounded!
