There seems to be a plethora of Airborne Infantrymen around here.
What is it about parachutes and kilts?
3/325 AIR, 82nd ABN Div, Ft Bragg, NC
Airborne Battalion Combat Team, Vicenza, Italy
1/507 PIR, Ft Benning, GA -- again!
All this seems a long time ago.

I agree. As a corollary, paratroopers and kilt wearers tend to swagger a slight bit unlike others. int:
