"Jumping Jim Gavin" of D-Day fame. He was the CO of the 82nd Airborne during "Operation Overlord". Unquestionably the most famous Paratrooper during WWII. He was the youngest CO to command a Division since the Civil War and was always the first to jump during an operation. Passed away in 1990 at the age of 82 from complications with Parkinson's disease.
