Soldiers from Fort Campbell’s 101st Airborne division set to deploy to southern border in October Beginning in early October, approximately 500 Soldiers from the 101st Airborne Division (Air Assault) Headquarters and other enabling units from Fort Campbell will deploy to the Southern Border to support U.S. Northern Command’s mission to secure and protect the territorial integrity of the United States. The 101st Airborne Division will assume the role of Joint Task Force headquarters from the 10th Mountain Division (Light Infantry) and will be charged with overseeing units of all U.S. service branches operating along the U.S. Southern Border. “For 83 years, the Soldiers of the 101st Airborne Division (Air Assault) have stood ready to answer the Nation’s call,” said Maj. Gen. David Gardner, commanding general of the 101st Airborne Division and Fort Campbell. “Now as we prepare to secure and protect our country’s territory, we look forward to continuing the important work of U.S. Northern Command and the 10th Mountain Division (Light Infantry) and working with the interagency and other partners in the region.” The unit will operate under the direction of U.S. Northern Command, which is working in conjunction with the Department of Homeland Security and Customs and Border Protection (CBP). Units from multiple installations across the Joint Force will fall under the 101st Airborne Division (Air Assault) Headquarters, while physically located in various locations along the southern United States. _101st Airborne Division_
