Anniversary Jump

Anniversary Jump In a recreation of the airborne assault on France on the night of 5 June 1944, more than 700 of today's paratroopers, combat controllers, and pararescuers jumped into the same drop zone near Sainte Mére Eglise that many of the hundreds of veterans jumped into sixty years ago. Then the soldiers of the 82nd Airborne Division and the 101st Airborne Division jumped from C-47s at altitudes as low as 300 feet. The current soldiers and airmen jumped from Air Force C-130s, MC-130s, and C-17s from a safer altitude of 1,000 feet. During the ceremonies, the transport crews made three passes and every time the US paratroopers began jumping, the honored vets applauded.
