Fallschirmjäger is the collective term for German airborne units of the interwar and World War II period. The first parachute unit was organized in Nazi Germany in 1936, possibly as a result of observations made during Soviet maneuvers the previous year. The first parachute squad was created on the initiative of Herman Göring and was assigned to the Luftwaffe. A year later (1937), the first such unit was subordinated to the Wehrmacht, and more precisely to the ground forces. In 1938, these units were combined and expanded to form the 7th Aviation Division under the command of General Kurt Student. It consisted of parachute infantry, troops trained in glider transport, and infantry transported to the battlefield by airplanes. Over the course of World War II, more Fallschirmjäger units were created, incl. In 1943, the 1st and 2nd Parachute Divisions were formed on the basis of the 7th Air Division. In the period 1939-1941, the German Fallschirmjäger were used for their intended purpose (e.g. during the fighting in Western Europe in 1940), but after heavy losses suffered during the fighting on Crete in 1941, the German parachute troops began to be used primarily as elite infantry units, in which role they proved very effective, earning the nickname "Green Devils" among the Allies.

The M252 is the American version of the British L16A2 mortar. The M252 was commissioned by the US Army and Marines to replace the M29 mortar. Compared to its predecessor, it is characterized by a significantly lower mass, which improves its mobility, a greater maximum range and a slightly better rate of fire with continuous fire. In 2014, a modernized version of the M252 mortar, designated M252A1, appeared, which is characterized by a reduced tare weight of about 9 kg (from 41.3 kg to 35.8 kg). The M252 mortar most often uses 4.5 kg demolition shells. It is also possible to fire ACERM ammunition, which uses GPS guidance, which reduces the scattering radius to less than 10 meters and has an increased range of up to 9.7 kilometers. Mortars of this type were used in combat, among other things, during Operation Desert Storm (1990-1991), operations in Afghanistan and Iraq (2003). Currently, the M252 mortar is in service with the United States, Estonia, Canada and Great Britain. The United States Marine Corps (USMC) is an independent branch of the US Armed Forces.

Often in the face of the enemy, the soldiers of this formation showed great courage, an example of which can be, for example, John Basilone was awarded the Medal of Honor for his success during the battles on Guadalcanal. After 1945, the Corps' soldiers fought, for example, in the Korean War (1950-1953) or especially in the Vietnam War (1964/1965-1975), suffering heavy losses in the latter war. After the end of the Cold War, USMC soldiers took part, for example, in both Gulf Wars (1990-1991 and 2003). Currently, there are 182,000 soldiers in the Corps and approximately 38,500 in the reserve. The Corps' motto is the Latin motto Semper Fidelis (Polish always faithful).
