The mission of any Parachute Infantry Force generally includes as its primary task that of seizing from the air important ground objectives and holding them, until conventional ground forces can link up and relieve them. According to its scale, an airborne assault may be tactical, operational or strategic. The assault may be effected either by parachute or from landed aircraft, or by a combination of both.

    The Aim Of Parachute Infantry Training Is Twofold:

     

    • To qualify the individual soldier technically as a parachutist;
