The Rakkasans are still considered the premier brigade combat team in the 101st despite that they were part of the 11th Airborne Division in WWII and the 506th Infantry Regiment is back in the 101st as the new 4th Brigade Combat Team. Generals William Westmoreland, Norman Schwarzkopf, and David Petraeus are all Rakkasans as is CSM Basil Plumley of "We Were Soldiers Once and Young" fame.
