    Lt. Gen. Joseph Anderson and Command Sgt. Maj. Isaia Vimoto, the XVIII Airborne Corps command team, assist Robert Charles DeGlopper and Raymond DeGlopper, the nephews of Medal of Honor recipient, Charles N. DeGlopper, in the unveiling of the archway for the newly-named, DeGlopper Air Assault School on Fort Bragg, N.C., Jan. 22, 2015. The school was renamed in honor of Pfc. DeGlopper, from the 325th Glider Infantry Regiment, for his gallant actions in World War II and as a tribute to the gliders that brought equipment and supplies behind enemy lines in support of airborne operations just as air assaults do on modern battlefields.
