2nd Battalion 173rd Airborne 'Sky Soldiers' Tribute Tee – Battle of Hill 138 (Vietnam)

Sky Soldiers Don't Fall — They Land with Purpose.

High above the jungle canopy of Vietnam's Central Highlands, the 2nd Battalion, 173rd Airborne Brigade earned a name that echoed across the war: Sky Soldiers. At Hill 138, they fought through dense terrain, relentless fire, and impossible odds — not for glory, but for the man beside them.

This tribute tee carries that legacy. Designed for veterans, military families, and those who understand that some hills are worth every step — this all-over-print honors the courage, sacrifice, and brotherhood of the 173rd Airborne with the respect it deserves.

The Battle of Hill 138

During Operation Junction City and subsequent engagements in Vietnam, the 173rd Airborne conducted the only major combat parachute assault of the Vietnam War. Their Sky Soldiers reputation was forged in fire — from War Zone C to the Central Highlands — where small units held ground against overwhelming enemy forces. Hill 138 stands as one of those defining moments of grit and resolve that history must never forget.
