Paratroops were envisioned in
1794 by Benjamin Franklin. While
Ambassador to France he wrote:
“Five thousand balloons capable
of raising two men each could not
cost more than five ships of the
line; and where is the Prince who
can afford to so cover his country
with troops for its defense as that
10,000 men descending from the
clouds might not in many places
do an infinite deal of mischief?”
