We periodically have new members on the Board asking about what airborne units there are in the Army. Below are links to the official sites of the airborne infantry units in the Army:
173rd Airborne Brigade, Vicenza, Italy
http://www.setaf.army.mil/skysoldiers/default.htm
82nd Airborne Division, Ft. Bragg, NC
http://www.bragg.army.mil/www-82dv
1st Battalion, 501st PIR, Ft. Wainwright, Alaska
http://www.usarak.army.mil/1501/1501web.htm
1st Battalion, 507th PIR, Ft. Benning, GA
http://www-benning.army.mil/Airborne/
1st Battalion, 509th PIR, Ft. Polk, LA
http://www.jrtc-polk.army.mil/opfor/Opfor.htm
5th Special Forces Group, Ft. Campbell, KY
http://www.campbell.army.mil/5thsfg.htm
And even though they are not on jump status:
101st Airborne Division, Ft. Campbell, KY
http://www.campbell.army.mil/division.htm
Each of these is available as a specific enlistment option(except 5th Group), although the availability of slots varies.
Also, the following SOCOM unit has airborne slots:
160th Special Operations Aviation Regiment, Ft. Campbell, KY
http://www.campbell.army.mil/160soar.htm
Quinman can give more information on the 160th.
There are a number of LRS and Pathfinder units around the Army on jump status, but to my knowledge they are not available as an enlistment option. Also, XVIII Airborne Corps has some Corps units on status which may be enlistment options(engineer, artillery, LRS, etc.) but some one who was stationed at Bragg would have to identify them.
Only two defining forces have ever offered to die for you, Jesus Christ and the American GI. One died for your soul, the other for your freedom.

For any TACP hopefuls here is a cool site about our USAF paratrooper brothers. One of our members "jfly" sent me the link.

I went ahead and made this a "sticky" topic (I think) it has the answers to allot of questions that people ask on a daily basis.
Thanks for taking the time to put it together Ranger Rios[thup]
