Formed at the beginning of World War II, the 101st Airborne Division has fought in almost nearly every major conflict in the world, front D-Day and Operation Market Garden, Vietnam and the Tet Offensive and Hamburger Hill, the Sinai, Kuwait and Iraq. With 4,000 troops and 281 Apache attack helicopters, this is the most versatile unit in today's armed forces with 3 battalions of elite troops forming a rapid deployment force prepared to go anywhere in the world within 36 hours. From parachute and glider infantry to today's air-assault force, this book takes the reader inside training, combat, and action on land, sea and air: a close-up, multi-faceted portrait of courage and skill as a fact of everyday life. With details of humanitarian relief operations in Rwanda, Somalia, Bosnia, Haiti, and countries affected by the 2005 Tsunami this shows why the 101 st Airborne are regarded as the best in the world - the vanguard in it's field - and what they deserve their name "Screaming Eagles"!
