The mission of the Scions of the 17th Airborne is to honor the service of all veterans of the 17th and to educate others about the history and sacrifices made by the troopers who served in this division during
World War II.
We strive to accomplish these missions by holding regional gatherings where troopers and their families can gather and share their recollections. We communicate with our membership using our
"Thunder From Heaven" newsletter, through our website
