The Akron Chapter of the 82nd Airborne Division Association is seeking all past and present airborne troopers who live in Northeastern Ohio (except the greater Cleveland area which has its own Chapter).
The Akron Chapter was chartered in 1949 and has members from all of the airborne divisions and separate units. Anyone who has earned a parachutist badge "jump wings" or was a glider trooper may join. Fees are $25 per year.
The group meets at New Era Restaurant located at No. 10 Massillon Road, Akron, monthly at 1 p.m. For more information for chapter activities, contact Chairman Robert F. Winkler at 330-325-7574.
