"CAMDEN, S.C. - More than 70 years of Army airborne history was set in motion, in part, by training here in 1943.

On Sunday, nearly 200 people gathered between the small South Carolina cities of Camden and Lugoff to mark the anniversary of the Army's first mass parachute drop, an event seen as a milestone that helped prove the feasibility of large airborne operations...."

Little bit of Airborne history.
