This incredibly rare and very historic piece of WWII history is an original WWII D-Day (Operation Overlord) 101st Airborne U.S. Paratrooper cut parachute cord from the Sainte-Mère-Eglise drop zone.
On D-Day, June 6, 1944, the 101st Airborne Division was tasked with securing key positions near Sainte-Mère-Église, a critical town in Normandy.
Paratroopers from the division were dropped early in the morning by C-47 aircraft and faced scattered landings due to misdrops.
Despite this, they secured key bridges, roads, and causeways to support the main Allied forces landing on Utah Beach.
This would make an extraordinary addition to any WWII collection.
