Original U.S. WWII Glider Airborne Parachute Infantry Regiment M1942 Paratrooper Jacket Martini-Henry Parts The large Transit tinOriginal Item: Only One Available. Unlike Parachute Infantry Regiment (PIR), Glider Infantry Regiment (GIR) material is exceptionally hard to find for two primary reason. There were far fewer Glider Infantry Regiments and of the ones that did exist the death rate of those men was close to 70%. Had a film equivalent to "Band of Brothers" been made about a Glider Infantry Regiment you can bet this material would be many times the value of comparable PIR
