Formed at the beginning of World War II, the 101st Airborne Division has fought in almost every major conflict since then, including Operations Enduring and Iraqi Freedom. Going from a parachute and glider infantry in its early days to an air assault division in our own--the only one in the world--the "Screaming Eagles" are trained to destroy enemy forces while seizing land and resources. They are a rapid deployment group prepared to go anywhere in the world within thirty-six hours. And, for good reason, they are probably the best-known army division in the world.

In this book, top military photographer and former U.S. Army Ranger Russ Bryant takes you inside the 101st Airborne. In training and in action, on land and in the air: Here are the Screaming Eagles as youve never seen them, in a close-up, multi-faceted portrait of courage and skill as a fact of everyday life. The book brilliantly illustrates why the 101st Airborne is the vanguard in its field--and in the world.

 

Russ Bryant is a veteran of the 1st Ranger Battalion and F/51 Long-Range Surveillance. Following his service, Bryant attended Savannah College of Art and Design and received a bachelor’s of fine art degree in photography. As a photographer, Bryant has traveled a great deal covering other, non-Ranger forces of the American military. His images have appeared the Army Times, Army Magazine, New York Times, Time Magazine, and at ArmyRanger.com. Bryant is the author/photographer of a number of other Zenith Press titles including 75th Rangers and USMC.

 

Susan Bryant became associated with the special operations forces community when she married then–U.S. Army Ranger Russ Bryant. Since that time, she and Russ have lived in Germany and Savannah, Georgia.

Susan holds a bachelor’s degree from Furman University, and master of education and education specialist degrees from Georgia Southern University. Initially a special education teacher, she now spends her days as a public school psychologist and a writer for Savannah’s monthly magazine, Island Living.
