The Paratroopers: A Story of the 82nd Airborne Division in Bloomington, MN

Steven Weaver's life as a college student was active. If he wasn't studying, he was playing varsity football or basketball. Now, with the coming of war, his first months in the Army lacked activity until he was given a unique opportunity in the summer of 1942 to join a group of air deployed combat infantry looking for athletic volunteers. Little did he know what would be asked of himself and his faith under fire.
