Just a few hours after this photo was taken on June 5, 1944, this American paratrooper (pictured) will die making the night combat jump into France on D-Day on June 6, 1944.

Col. Robert "Bull" Wolverton, commander of the 3rd Bn. , 506th PIR, 101st Airborne Division, is preparing to jump on Saint-Come-du-Mont, Normandy in this photo.

His unit was the same regiment to which belonged the legendary "Band of Brothers," the Wolverston's Operation Market Garden, and the Battle of the Bulge in Bastogne.

Despite being killed before landing on French soil, Order of battle for the American airborne landings in Normandy,
Wolverton's legacy endured, particularly on the strength of a prayer spoken to the 750 men in his battalion hours before the D-Day parachute drop behind enemy lines.

81 years ago tonight 156,000 troops waited for what would be the largest amphibious invasion in history. Many wouldn’t know whether they’d live to see another sunset. In the end, about 4,400 of them would lose their lives on the beaches of Normandy.

81 years ago today, paratroopers bound for Normandy. 🇺🇸

March 26, 1969

@terryc2024 and CCC B Co. Hatchet Force in Lima-6, along the Ho Chi Minh Trail, searching for truck traffic, discovered a refueling station and an NVA bunker complex.

As Terry moved forward, an NVA soldier armed with an SKS jumped out. Both fired at each other. Terry was hit in the ankle, but his burst struck and disabled the SKS’s receiver.

The NVA soldier ran toward a bunker but was eventually taken out by indigenous members of the Hatchet Force.

In the photo, Terry is holding the same SKS that was used against him.

On this day in 1945, Japan unconditionally surrenders to the Allies. The ceremony takes place aboard the American battleship USS Missouri in Tokyo Bay. The Second World War, which began exactly six years and one day earlier, is officially over.

Happy “Fall of Atlanta Day” to those who celebrate
