Yes. There were many occasions when troops were parachuted in.
In the Hunger Games (the games not the book) parachutes symbolize gifts. If you were a tribute in the Games and were sent a parachute, you would get a gift. In the books however, the parachutes could symbolize many things. But at the end of the series, it would be safe to say that whenever Katniss thinks of the silver parachutes, she will think of her sister Prim (Read book 3 and you will see why).
Prim and many other kids are taken to the capitol and parachutes fly down on top of them. They all think it is a gift, but it was Gale and Beetee's bomb idea. The parachutes were bombs and they killed Prim.
Air resistance is the main reason that a parachutes slowly float to earth. the weightattached to the parachute keep it suspended in the correct shape to be effective. this is a very simplistic explanation and as can be seen from the many shapes and styles of modern parachutes there are other factors involved that can be used to modify the performance of a chute.

A soldier who parachutes into battle (although technically they rarely did so and "para" came to mean elite soldier, with the ability to parachute into a battle zone one of many skills).
