Once you have passed Airborne School, you will be eligible to join the 82nd Airborne Division, which is the only active airborne division in the U.S. Army. These maps involve jumping out of a C-17 cargo plane, parachuting into your operational area to conduct various missions including airfield seizure.


82nd AIRBORNE DIVISION
The 82nd Airborne Division consists of four parachute infantry brigades, one aviation brigade, and one sustainment brigade. On any given day, one parachute infantry brigade is on a mission ready cycle, able to respond to an emergency and deploy anywhere in the world within 18 hours of notification. Their primary mission is airfield and seaport seizure. Once they land on the ground they operate as a light infantry division using light wheeled vehicles, and towed artillery.
