Today, we have a fun partner/team workout to honor our nation's paratroopers. Learn more about the 82nd Airborne Association. As soon as you start to slow down, switch out and let someone else go to work. Each piece of this workout has significance to the U.S. Army airborne forces:
1940 is the date of the birth of the U.S. Army airborne forces.
48 is the number of original parachute test platoon volunteers.
