A paratrooper is a military parachutist—someone trained to parachute into an operation, and usually functioning as part of an airborne force.

Military parachutists (troops) and parachutes were first used on a large scale during World War II for troop distribution and transportation.

Paratroopers are often used in surprise attacks, to seize strategic objectives such as airfields or bridges.
