WWII Airborne Demonstration Team ...

Mon Feb 25, 2019 11:16 am

"The WWII Airborne Demonstration Team Foundation was formed to honor and serve the memory of the men who fought and died to preserve America's freedom during WWII as members of Airborne units of the United States Army. The activities of the Foundation also recognize and honor those who served and survived that conflict.

The Foundation serves that honorable purpose through the participation of its members in active parachute jumping in the style of the WWII airborne soldier utilizing an aircraft that actually participated in the invasion of Europe. These activities serve to further the memory of their unbending loyalty to the cause of freedom.

Further, it is the goal of the Foundation to foster, promote and engage in research of WWII airborne operations and military history and to inform and educate the public through airborne operations demonstrations throughout the United States."

Sweet! Can't wait to see in person at Chino. So they have 2 of their own C-47's and can pair up with others at a venue? I imagine there will be a handful at Planes of Fame :D

Fantastic set there Mark! Great to see those guys doing so well. We had one of the ADT's planes visit because of bad weather in Frederick this past fall and it was good to see it up close. I look forward to seeing shots from their performances across the nation during this spring and most especially, watching all the activities as they do their activities over Normandy this June.

I know a few guys who have jumped with them.
As I understand it, they plan in taking part in the mass C47/DC3 formation at Normandy this June?
