173rd Airborne Brigade
March 7, 2025 | 0:28
As global threats evolve, so do the tactics and standards of the 173rd Airborne Brigade. Every training exercise is an opportunity to advance our readiness, developing complex targeting plans and make critical decisions under pressure. With the most modern equipment, Sky Soldiers ensure interoperability with partner nations and allied service. The 173rd Airborne Brigade remains ready to respond to any crisis anywhere anytime.
The 173rd Airborne Brigade is the U.S. Army's Contingency Response Force in Europe, providing rapidly deployable forces to the United States European, African, and Central Command areas of responsibility. Forward deployed across Italy and Germany, the brigade routinely trains alongside NATO allies and partners to build partnerships and strengthen the alliance.
