With the rapidly expanding parachute units, the 504th Parachute Battalion was redesignated the 2nd Battalion 503rd Parachute Infantry. However, some personnel were pulled to form the Cadre/Staff of the 504th Parachute Infantry Regiment. This yard long photo is provided on this page so that you can compare which personnel went on to form the 504th Parachute Infantry Regiment. The pages above the photo show the 504th Parachute Battalion prior to the reorganization.
