Caine: US airborne forces ready for ground operations
American airborne forces are ready to carry out ground operations at any time if ordered.
1news.media reports that Dan Caine, Chairman of the U.S. Joint Chiefs of Staff, made the remarks at a press briefing.
"These paratroopers are constantly ready to jump from Air Force aircraft into ground combat and seize key terrain if ordered to do so, just like their predecessors did in Sicily and Normandy in World War II," Caine said.
