Moments ago this All-American Paratrooper renewed his oath to serve the Nation during the #Army250 Salute to Service at @Nationals Park.

When the call for an indirect fire mission comes in, our DIVARTY crews deliver with unmatched precision and power.

On time. On target. #aatw

82nd Airborne Division Paratroopers carry the torch of those All Americans who jumped into history 81 years ago.

Next week, we will honor their sacrifice, courage, and enduring commitment to freedom at the Normandy 81 Commemoration. #aatw

Swift Response 25 wasn’t a drill - it was pure domination. Paratroopers dropped in fast, linked up with Allies, and unleashed chaos on the opposition.

LGOPs owned the fight. Flat, fast, accurate and lethal. #aatw

Two of our own earned the Medal of Honor:
- LTC Emory Pike, was severely wounded by shellfire while aiding wounded Troopers
- CPL Alvin York, took out a machine gun nest and captured 128 enemy soldiers

The 82nd’s story didn’t end in 1919. It was only the beginning. #aatw

OTD, 1919: the 82nd Infantry Division came home and hung up its boots, at least for a little while. In just a year overseas, the All Americans fought through St. Mihiel, the Meuse-Argonne, and more - earning a reputation for toughness that still sticks today.

“Ordinary people whose lives became extraordinary expressions of duty.”

We honor those who fought and died for our Nation. We pray for a meaningful Memorial Day to our Gold Star Families and the friends of those no longer with us. We say their names and keep their memory alive.

During the #AAW25 Division Memorial Ceremony, we pause to honor the memory of our Paratroopers who made the ultimate sacrifice. Their courage and service will never be forgotten.

Our Families jumping from the 34’ Tower gives them a small taste of what it’s like to be Airborne.

CSM(r) Henderson, AA HoF Class of 2025, had 3 generations of his family at the Tower today. USAAAS will have the tower open until 1500 today for friends and family to jump. #aaw25

OTD, 1943: the 82nd Airborne arrived in Casablanca - becoming the first Airborne Division to deploy overseas. The next two years would set a new standard for what it means to be a Paratrooper, and shape the same Airborne legacy we'll celebrate this month at All American Week.

[All American Division (inactive) @82ndABNDiv]

Today’s Paratroopers stand on the shoulders of giants. We can’t wait to see all of our veterans come home for All American Week 25!

Sgt. Brian Lieberman ran toward gunfire to save a neighbor’s life.

On May 6, the @82ndABNDiv Paratrooper received the Soldier’s Medal for heroism during an active shooter incident at his apartment complex.

Read the full award citation below ⤵️

"On 5 June 2023, Specialist Lieberman went above and beyond the call of duty at his apartment building, The Reserve at Carrington Place in Fayetteville, North Carolina. While sitting with his roommates, Mr. and Mrs. Aramburo, Specialist Lieberman heard gunshots outside his apartment building. He moved to the window to assess the situation and observed multiple people running and screaming near the apartment complex pool. Specialist Lieberman, who is licensed to carry a concealed weapon, secured his personal firearm before racing to aid those in danger. He ran to the pool area, identified a victim with a gunshot wound, and began rendering lifesaving aid. While evaluating the victim and identification of the wound, he heard a car rapidly approaching down the street. Specialist Lieberman looked up and saw a vehicle with an individual hanging out of the rear window aiming a firearm at him. With complete disregard for his own safety, he shielded the victim with his body as the passenger opened fire for a second time. Continuing to place himself in harm's way to protect others, Specialist Lieberman pursued the vehicle and moved behind a maintenance building for cover. As the vehicle turned around to drive by the pool complex again, the passenger began engaging Specialist Lieberman with a firearm. From behind cover, he listened for a pause in the gunfire and stood up to identify the vehicle. Observing he had a clear line of sight, with no risk to other people in the area, Specialist Lieberman returned fire. His courageous action forced the shooter back in the vehicle. After seeing the vehicle leave the apartment complex, Specialist Lieberman returned to the pool area and continued evaluating and treating the victim. He identified the entrance wound and used the coated side of a piece of gauze to create a temporary chest seal. Specialist Lieberman treated her for shock and helped the victim maintain consciousness. Within minutes, Fayetteville Police arrived on the scene and assisted him, asked the police for additional medical supplies and applied a chest seal provided by the police. He continued to treat and stabilize the victim until medical services arrived. Specialist Lieberman's bravery and willingness to risk his life to protect others is in keeping with the finest traditions of military service and reflect great credit upon him, the 82d Airborne Division, and the United States Army."
