MEMBERSHIP:

The Air Assault Parity Coalition was formed of members of the 101st Airborne Division Association, the 506th Airborne Infantry Regiment Assocation (Currahees), the 1st Cavalry Division Association, the 101st Airborne Division Vietnam Veterans Associations and other interested veterans and civilians.

The last Vietnam veteran left the ARMY in 2015. We apprecate the 'Honorary' award as an acknowledgement of the error made in 1974 when the 101st 'considered and rejected' the retroactive award to Vietnam combat vets when the lifers said we 'lost the war.'
