    Paratroopers with the 1st Battalion, 503rd Parachute Infantry Regiment practice parachute landing falls, a controlled fall where the Soldier shapes their body so they roll through their impact on the ground, during training March 18 at Grafenwoehr Training Area, Germany. Parachute landing falls are designed to reduce the chance of injury to a Soldier after they parachute from an aircraft. The 173rd Airborne Brigade is the Army’s Contingency Response Force in Europe, providing ready forces to deploy anywhere in the U.S. European, Africa and Central Commands areas of responsibility in less than 18 hours.
