Unit History & Information
The 508th Parachute Infantry Regiment was constituted in October 1942 and activated at Camp Blanding, Florida. During World War II, its paratroopers fought with the 82nd Airborne Division in Normandy and the Netherlands, establishing the regiment’s Red Devils and “Fury from the Sky” heritage.
The Airborne Battalion Combat Team wording on this reproduction recalls another chapter of 1st Battalion’s service. In 1996 the 3rd Battalion, 325th Infantry was reflagged as 1st Battalion, 508th Infantry. The battalion served at Caserma Ederle in Vicenza, Italy, during the following decade, before the Italy-based unit was reflagged as 1st Battalion, 503rd Infantry in June 2006. The design preserves the earlier 1-508th identity.
