Fort Moore is the birthplace of the Airborne. Former President George W. Bush proclaimed Aug. 16, 2001, as the first National Airborne Day to commemorate the first official Army parachute jump, which took place on Aug. 16, 1940. This day honors the bravery, dedication, and contributions of airborne forces in the U.S. military. The original event marked the beginning of airborne operations, which have since become a crucial part of military tactics and strategy. National Airborne Day recognizes the achievements of airborne troops and their role in national defense. The Airborne and Ranger Training Brigade’s 1-507th PIR instructs the U.S. Army Basic Airborne Course, which trains over 12,000 military personnel each year as military parachutists. Airborne candidates include not only U.S. Army Soldiers and members of other U.S. armed forces but also international military forces. Students learn to use the parachute as a means of combat deployment and to develop leadership, self-confidence, and an aggressive spirit through mental and physical conditioning. https://www.dvidshub.net/webcast/35014 August 16, 2024 9:00 AM EDT WP Subscriber Exclusive: First Look With the Post’s Jonathan Capehart Washington Post Live https://www.washingtonpost.com/washington-post-live/subscriber/2024/08/16/wp-subscriber-exclusive-first-look-with-posts-jonathan-capehart/ August 16, 2024 9:00 AM EDT Korea and Cold War Annual Government Brief 2024 Day Two The Defense POW/MIA Accounting Agency conducts a series of government briefings and updates to families of American service members who served in the Korean War and Cold War and are still missing.

FEC Supreme Court Decision Attorneys and law professors debated the question: “Has Citizens United undermined democracy?” The debate was based on the 2010 landmark Supreme Court decision Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission, which allowed unlimited spending by corporations, labor unions, and other organizations in elections. Arguing for the motion were law professors Francesca Procaccini and Ciara Torres-Spelliscy, and arguing against it were attorneys Eric Wang and Floyd Abrams. Mr. Abrams previously argued the case before the Supreme Court, on behalf of Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY) as amicus curiae.
