CPT Charles, roger that.

This is what the 173rd was put at Vicenza to do, but they just came back from Afghanistan and are all on block leave, probably not current on jump status, and probably NMC.

A brigade from the Army’s 101st Airborne Division took over as the country’s quick-reaction force last year, after all four of the 82nd’s 3,500-solider brigades deployed to Iraq and Afghanistan.

The last 82nd unit to serve as the “division-ready brigade” was the 2nd, which was the first unit sent into Iraq last year as part of the surge that added 30,000 troops to the U.S. forces there.

I think we’ve run out of deployable paratroopers.
