The All Americans in World War II: A Photographic History of the 82nd Airborne Division at War

On the night of 9/10 July 1943, the All Americans of the 82nd Airborne Division jumped into history as they made their first parachute assault of World War II. Three others would follow: Salerno, Normandy, and Holland. In total, the division served more than three hundred days in combat, a record unmatched by any other American division. With five hundred historic photographs, "The All Americans in World War II" provides a complete photographic history of the 82nd Airborne Division as it fought it way across Sicily, Italy, France, Belgium, and Germany, ultimately all the way to Berlin as part of the American occupation forces.

A tank destroyer retreating from St. Vith during the Battle of the Bulge drove upon a soldier digging a fox hole. The commander asked if this was the front line and the soldier, PFC Vernon L. Haught asked if he was looking for a safe place. The commander said yes and Haught replied: "Well, buddy, just pull your vehicle behind me. I'm the 82nd Airborne, and this is as far as the bastards are going."
