While serving as the lead battalion of the nation's Global Response Force, 1st Battalion, 505th Parachute Infantry Regiment was alerted in April of 2011 for deployment to Afghanistan in support of Operation Enduring Freedom and the Combined Joint Special Operations Task Force - Afghanistan. In late May 2011, the battalion deployed and distributed combat power across each Special Operations Task Force (SOTF) in country to execute Village Stability Operations in conjunction with Special Operations Forces from different services and partnered Afghan National Security Forces. The battalion conducted sustained combat operations for just over 9 months and completed their redeployment in early March 2012.
"Breaking the Paradigm" highlights the uniqueness of this deployment, where Special and Conventional Forces operated together under a single, tactical-level headquarters and excelled. Paratroopers, Green Berets, SEALs, and Afghan National Security Forces executed combat operations together as one team under the command of Task Force One Panther.- The battalion, known as Task Force One Panther, established a headquarters in Mazar-e-Sharif and assumed responsibility for Special Operations Forces operating across the nine provinces of Regional Command-North. The Task Force included Paratroopers; an Advanced Operating Base and multiple Special Forces Operational Detachments Alphas from 1st and 5th Special Forces Groups; a Sea, Air, and Land (SEAL) from SEAL Team 7 then later 3; and numerous key enablers. They partnered with the 5th Afghan Commando Kandak, numerous Afghan Special Forces Detachments, and Afghan Local Police (ALP). The remainder of the battalion augmented the other SOTFs across Afghanistan and operated throughout the deployment in Paktia, Zabul, Kandahar, Helmand, Farah, Herat, and Badghis Provinces, among other locations. Collectively, these forces established security, improved governance, and fostered development in order to defeat the insurgency and improve the Afghans way of life.
