How did the glider troops training compare to the paratroopers with the 11th? I know the 511th was waved the 1st of 4 weeks at Benning, the physical fitness phase A, because observers felt they were fit enough to go straight to phase B. I read in "The Angels" that glider troops described basic at Camp McCall as "vigorous" while airborne training was described is "rigorous"; the terms definitely implicate by degree. Yet I've also seen, including in this article, that rigorous training was the standard division wide. Anyone know? Thanks.

The book The Glider Gang: An eyewitness history of World War II glider combat by Milton Dank (1977) [ISBN-13: 978-0397011612] would probably be an excellent piece of reference material for this article. Wingman4l7 ( talk) 03:01, 23 February 2012 (UTC) reply

The general concepts are more comprehensively covered in the main article, while history of individual units can be covered in those units' articles. Ibadibam ( talk) 20:26, 20 April 2017 (UTC) reply

I wouldn't merge, but convert Air Landing Regiment to List of Air Landing Regiments. It would still need a summary and context content as well as a straight list of units. GraemeLeggett ( talk) 20:50, 20 April 2017 (UTC) reply
