307th Engineer Battalion commemorates Waal River crossing

 FORT BRAGG, N.C. (Oct. 26, 2015) -- The fall morning is cold in the dense foliage deep in the back woods here, Oct. 21. Beams of yellow light pierce through the trees, illuminating the lonely and shady trails next to Kiest Lake.

A roaring cadence shatters the serene scene as hundreds of motivated paratroopers crest over the final hilltop before reaching the lake. Teams run and chant, hoisting Zodiac boats above their heads. The paratroopers, assigned to 307th Engineer Battalion, have come to honor their unit's history during an annual commemoration of the crossing of the Waal River.
