The December 7, 1941, surprise attack on Pearl Harbor thrust the United States into World War II. Just six months later in May 1942, flying new C-47 transport aircraft, the 60th Troop Carrier Group led the way as the first U.S. TCG to deploy to England and the European Theater of Operations in World War II. Leading the way to victory, the 60th TCG's first mission-dropping U. S. paratroopers outside of Oran, North Africa-was not only the first combat airborne mission in U.S. Army history, but also the longest airborne mission of the entire war.
