On February 18, 2003, the City Commission, by resolution, re-affirmed the City Of Boynton Beach's support of Company D, 2nd Battalion, 327th Infantry Regiment of the 101st Airborne Division Air Assault, a.k.a. DELTA DEMONS.
The City has adopted the Delta Demons through the national nonprofit organization "America Supporting Americans" (ASA). The objective of the ASA is to establish an "Adoption" program for every branch of the United States Armed Services by an American town.
The 2nd Battalion, 327th Infantry Regiment of the 101st Airborne Division (Air Assault) deploys within 36 hours worldwide as part of a joint multinational or unilateral task force to destroy enemy forces or seize and retain terrain, to control land, people, and resources. They are based out of Ft. Campbell, Kentucky, and are composed of a battalion headquarters and the headquarters company known as HHC Wolverines. There are also four infantry companies known as the Alpha Gators, the Bravo Bayonets, the Charlie Cougars and the Delta Demons. Their motto is NO SLACK and the Delta Demons are the battalion's anti-tank company.
Members of the Boynton Beach City staff have taken the initiative to act in the capacity as organizers and liaisons to the community to provide morale support to our soldiers.
Our goals are to:
- Collect supplies for care packages.
- Establish a pen-pal network between soldiers and the community.
- Establish a web link to information on the City Of Boynton Beach web page.
- Raise awareness and encourage community involvement through periodic special events.
