Honor the Triple Nickles — America’s First Black Paratroopers
They were told what they couldn’t do. Then they jumped anyway.
Born from a bold recommendation in December 1942, the 555th Parachute Infantry Company was constituted on February 25, 1943 — becoming America’s first all-Black parachute unit. Championed by the Advisory Committee on Negro Troop Policies and approved by Chief of Staff General George C. Marshall himself, the Triple Nickles shattered barriers at 1,200 feet. Wear their legacy with pride.
