The Fallschirmjager was Germany's elite airborne fighting unit. They made the first airborne infantry assaults in history of the world. When Germany made its invasion on Western Europe, the German paratroopers parachuted and landed in gliders capturing strategic places. When Hitler commanded the Fallschirmjager to make an all out airborne assualt on the large island of Crete, they did, but sustained such heavy loses that Adolf Hitler never attempted to order them to parachute again. They were then turned into Hitler's elite SS or elite infantry men.
