| book description |

A definitive history of one of the U.S. Armyâ€™s most elite and enduring formations, this book traces the full evolution of the 82nd Airborne Division from its World War I origins to its current role as a rapid-response force. Drawing on rare archival sources and previously unpublished first-hand accounts, it offers a comprehensive portrait of the â€œAll Americanâ€ Division across more than a century of service. While the divisionâ€™s exploits during World War IIâ€”from their first combat operation jumping into Sicily, their role in the airborne assaults in Normandy and at Arnhem, and their part in the Battle of the Bulgeâ€”are widely recognized, this book goes far beyond. It explores the 82ndâ€™s formation in 1917, its transformation into the Armyâ€™s first airborne division in 1942, its adaptation to new strategic demands during the Cold War, and the fighting it has undertaken in conflicts from Vietnam to Iraq and Afghanistan. This is not just a history of battles and campaignsâ€”it is a story of the soldiers themselves. Through veteransâ€™ voices, after-action reports, and unit records, the book captures the lived experience of paratroopers, from the trenches of the Western Front to 21st-century deployments. The result is a richly detailed and authoritative account of the 82nd Airborne Divisionâ€™s combat legacy.
