AIRBORNE PATH
The Airborne Memorial Path
THE AIRBORNE MEMORIAL PATH
As you walk on the museum grounds, you will notice a path made of engraved stones. Each stone is beautifully engraved with a WWII airborne veteran's name and unit.
Created to pay tribute to those airborne troopers who fought in the ETO during WWII, these stones make the D-Day Paratroopers Historical Center a unique place of rememberance.
The names of these brave men will remain on this significant battlefield site for generations to come, for all to see and recall. Years from now, when WWII is but a dim memory relegated to history books, most visitors will wonder who these men were.
They were Airborne, and who they were, and what they did, is what these future generations will learn at the historical center.
BECOME A PART OF THE AIRBORNE MEMORIAL PATH
Anyone who fought in Europe during WWII with an airbone unit (or was attached to an airborne unit), anyone who flew paratroopers into combat as part of the Troop Carrier Command or anyone wo participated in the liberation of Carentan, are eligible to take your place here, among these heroes.
Leave a mark by having your name and unit engraved on one of these stones and placing it on the Airborne Path or offer a spot to someone special. Give a WWII airborne veteran to whom you wish to pay tribute - perhaps a fallen comrade, or a husband, a father, a brother, someone you loved or simply someone you want to see remembered - a lasting memorial on this significant historical soil.
