Same chaps got hammered within 72 hours in Hostomel and Kiev when their whole doctrine and training was shown as obsolete.
They had to be rebuilt from scratch.
Anyways not the thread and topic.
No they didn't. They captured the airfields but they were expecting reinforcements after 72 hours. They are paratroopers for god's sakes. They do not have enough supply or strength it to hold out against a heavier regular mechanized force and they did held for 3-4 more days before finally withdrawing.
