Association Convention, General Ridgway Message, 1982 All-American Unite, 1982 Exercises [Bright Star, Gallant Eagle, Reforger], Sinai-MFO, Fayetteville, and In Memoriam. It records some of the activities, some of the equipment, some of the facilities, some of the geography visited, and some of the personalities who made up the division during this time. It cannot describe or depict adequately the Spirit of the airborne, and undefinable thread of comradeship and respect that binds together men who are willing to jump from a plane in flight, to entrust their lives to a parachute,....men who are prepared at any time to fulfill the sacred trust placed in them by the people of the United States. This is a snapshot of this unit just prior to its deployment in 1983 to Grenada as part of Operation Urgent Fury. More
