The concept of landing military forces via airborne methods, as we shall see, is not a new one. On the other hand, the thought behind the concept has only within recent times been proven to be of sound military value, thai is, proven under actual combat conditions. Although other nations had experimented with parachute landing of combat forces prior to the beginning of the Second World War, it remained for the German Fallschirmjager (paratroopers) to establish the military precedent and total practicability of this unique melhod of troop deployment on the battlefield. It Is due to their efforts and in particular those extended by General Student, who commanded ail German parachute forces during WW II, that the concept was proven In fact, and accepted for a valuable military tool.
