The United States Army's experiment with airborne forces started at Fort Benning, Georgia, in early 1940, with a single platoon of paratroopers. From this tiny seed grew the mighty American airborne legion that spearheaded America's attack against Nazi Germany in Sicily and Normandy. Ultimately this branch included an airborne corps headquarters, five full airborne divisions, and several independent battalions and regiments.
