Century of the All American Division

The year 2017 is our centennial and all year long we're honoring our Century of Service.

The All American Division was born in 1917 for entry into World War I. Our Paratroopers saved the world from tyranny in World War II. From the Dominican Republic to Iraq and Afghanistan, we've answered the call many times since.

Join us for All American Week 100, May 22nd through May 25th, for a celebration of our shared legacy here on Fort Bragg. Over the coming days, we'll release information on #AAW100, so check back here for updates on the biggest All American Week yet!

We also hope all of our Paratroopers, Alumni, Families, and supporters check out tomorrow's edition of the All American Legacy Podcast on iTunes.

In "The Day Before the Day," we tell the story of the Division's participation in the D Day landings in Normandy. On the night of June 5th, 1944, our Paratroopers risked everything to liberate a small village in France to ensure success on D Day.
