創立記念行事（式辞） 真の強さが時代から要請されている。真の強さとは、日本刀が、鋼と軟鉄を幾重にも重ね鍛えることによって強さとしなやかさを 保持するのと同様に、ゆるぎない愛国心に裏打ちされた厳しい訓練と、家族を含めた個人の幸せを幾重にも折り重ね、 鍛錬を続けることにより達成される。各部隊長を核心とし、与えられた任務を完遂し得る強靭で無敵の第１空挺団を目指そう。 Biographies Major General Kimihito Iwamura Commander，1st Airborne Brigade Major General Iwamura graduated from the National Defense Academy and was commissioned as a second lieutenant in the Infantry in 1986.
