Death From Above
During 1940 and 1941 the German paratroops, the Fallschirmjäger, had conducted some of the most daring and decisive airborne operations of the war, but 1942 saw their role change. Hitler was no longer willing to risk this elite force in massed airborne operations. Instead these elite light infantry were used as fire-brigade unit in theatres as far a field as Tunisia and the Russia. The Italian Parachutists, initially earmarked for the invasion of Malta to fight alongside the Fallschirmjäger, similarly found themselves used the booster the Italian front-line.
