The 2nd Battalion 503rd PIR, is an active duty assigned to the 173rd Airborne Brigade. The unit was originally constituted March 14, 1941, as Company B, 503rd Parachute Battalion. It conducted the first combat jump in U.S. history from C-47 aircraft and dropped the battalion into Algeria. The 2-503 was nicknamed "The Rock" for their tough paratroopers and we are glad to pay homage with this remastered design. WETSU Shirt DescriptionMade from a 4.3 oz., 60/40 combed ring-spun cotton/polyester blend, pre-laundered for a soft, comfortable feel. Designed with an athletic fit—may shrink slightly, so DD214 bodies may need to size up. Proudly Printed in the USA by VeteransEach shirt is made to order and printed by U.S. Veterans using vintage water-based inks. The vintage ink will give it a vintage look and the feel is incredibly soft and gets even smoother after the first wash. The print fully absorbs into the fabric for a lightweight, no-scratch feel—so you can move without distraction. Production takes 3-5 business days before shipping.
