1st Battalion, 501st Infantry (Airmobile Infantry) without SVC Ribbon
-
When the 501st Parachute Infantry Regiment was activated at Camp Toccoa, Georgia, on 15 November 1942, it began life with a rich airborne heritage. The famous test platoon, the prime ancestor of all American Parachute Units, provided the nucleus of the 1st Parachute Battalion, which in turn provided part of the cadre, the unit number, the genealogical lineage and the heraldic background of the 501st Parachute Regiment. It's initial group of officers were hand picked by its first commander, Colonel Howard Johnson, known by his peers as "Skeets". He was very much in the swashbuckling mold of most of the original parachute regimental commanders, of whom the popular saying was "To command a parachute unit, you don't have to be nuts, but it helps!"
