National Airborne Day commemorates the first jump conducted by the Airborne Test Platoon onto Cactus DZ on 16 August 1940 and pays homage to the brave men who tested the Airborne concept. The Liberty Jump Team, supported by the 1-507th executed an Airborne Operation onto Fryar DZ, out of the storied C-47 “Skytrain” to honor our proud history and storied tradition.
