    A U.S. Army paratrooper holds on to the jumpmasters parachute as he checks out the side door of a C-130J Super Hercules aircraft while flying over the beaches of Normandy, France, June 9, 2024. Eighty years later, the bravery and heroism by all Allies and U.S. forces during World War II continue to resonate around the world – as today’s Alliance remains steadfast in its commitment to global peace and security. We honor those in whose footsteps we follow by remaining ready and postured to face regional and global threats in an increasingly dynamic security environment in Europe.
