Fallschirmjaeger : ウィキペディア英語版 | Fallschirmjäger
''Fallschirmjäger'' (''Fallschirmjaeger'' in English) is the German word for paratroopers. They played an important role during World War II, when, together with the ''Gebirgsjäger'' they were perceived as the elite infantry units of the German military. After World War II, they were reconstituted as parts of postwar armed forces of both West and East Germany, mainly as special ops troops. German ''Fallschirmjäger'' in World War II were the first paratroopers to be committed in large-scale airborne operations. They came to be known as the "green devils" by the Allied forces they fought against, as well as for their uniquely distinct morale. 〔''Green Devils: German Paratroopers 1939-1945'' By Jean-Yves Nasse, W. Muhlberger, G. Schubert, Jean-Pierre Villaume,〕 ==Etymology== The word ''Fallschirmjäger'' is from the German ''Fallschirm'', "parachute", and ''Jäger'', literally 'hunter,' which refers in this context to light infantry.
