In this episode, show host and 11th Airborne Division historian Jeremy C. Holm delves into the life of Major General Joseph May Swing, the Father of the 11th Airborne Division. Known as "Jumping Joe" to his men, General Swing is a legend in America's airborne history and this episode will cover the first half of his military service, including his experiences in Mexico during the Punitive Expedition against Pancho Villa and in France during World War I.
We'll also follow young Joe Swing's career as an aide to General Peyton C. March, his early run-ins with General Douglas MacArthur and his accomplishments on the polo field, in the field artillery and the airborne, as well as his initial impacts on both of those branches of the United States military.
General Joseph May Swing's name deserves to be remembered in the same class as James Gavin, Maxwell Taylor, William Miley and Matthew Ridgeway.
