Hi sir, need your help if possible,i got something from WW1engraved whith a name and references of regiments.55th inf. and 7th tn.i made some research on the net but can't find any references about theses regiments in France and the A.E.F.did they were incorporate in other corps or division ? thanks for reading me...greatings from France 🙂
One of my ancestors. A Grandfather of many greats was in the Korean War. He met my Grandmother greats of greats in a train.the grandfather was a US soldier and the Grandmother was sort of the waves
I started life as a medic with the 82nd Airborne in '81 and ended my career as a Cal Guard Truck driver, which is how I went to Iraq - post 1st Gulf war I saw an AAR that the Army decided that a cheap award for Nat'l Guard and Reservists was to attach them to an Active Division and award them the Combat patch - my Real Combat Patch was 3rd COSCOM, and my award Combat Patch was 4th ID, since that was being done 4th ID made a. patch with different colors to show that they weren't Real 4th ID soldiers - a real bunch of jerks.
On October 18th 1859 Robert E Lee and Jeb Stewart back on leave from the first 2nd Cavalry, lead a Marine detachment to subdue John Brown at the Armory.
The 168th Infantry Regiment of the 34th Infantry Division did get into the line. It was the only regiment of the 34th Division that saw combat in WW1. 29:23 you should have paused for half a second or so to allow people to get a good look at the 89th Division patches. When the viewer pauses the video, it is blurry.
I also have the army document that my grandfather, Pvt. Newell authorized the department to send his pay to his wife in Laredo & that he was stationed at Fort McIntosh & he was from Jackson Lake, La.
I have a Christmas napkin dated 24 December 1917 that has the roster of Company D of the 37th Infantry Division stationed at Fort McIntosh, Laredo,Texas. It has my maternal grandfather’s name on it, Pvt. Homer Floyd Newell. He was from Louisiana but after the war he returned to look up the young girl he invited to the Christmas dinner to marry her. The way they met is a love story in itself. Who keeps napkins & what sweet little nothings did they talk about that Cupid shot the arrow that hit the hearts.
Did you know that the companies from 65th Brigade wore the Australian Battalion shoulder patches from the battalions they were attached to before and during the Battle of Hamel. I'm not sure how long they kept them on for after
what part of the war you were in i remember you lost more ground there you gained you kept bombing allies than Germany my great great great grandfather came back from Passchendaele he worked as a surgery and a doctor Americans dropped a bomb on the field hospital killing everyone inside of the hospital Thanks to Canada Australia New Zealand Newfoundland they did hold up their side Passchendaele NO American taking part what part did you have in this war?

Thanks again, Colonel!
Any time!
The 11th Airborne also saw extensive combat in the Pacific during ww2, not just started in Vietnam
Thank you for this extremely well done video and God bless those Brave Men who didn't make it home.
Much appreciated
Could you do one on State Guard units
That maybe a great idea , thank you. 😊
My Great Uncle served in the 309th Infantry Regiment of the 78th Division. He was wounded in the Battle of the Meuse Argonne.

What about the 9th Infantry Division???
What does Ghost Division mean
I believe all the patches are also displayed together at the National WW1 Museum and Memorial in Kansas City
Thank you what an education!🇺🇲
Thanks Colonel very much
You are very welcome
At Ft Benning, there is a stadium with the Divisonal Infantry Patches painted around its circumfrance. Hopefully, that hasn't been changed also.

good suggestion, thank you
Just a minor correction; the WWI draft started July 20, 1917 and ended in Sep. 1918.
thanks for the good feed back.
I also have the army document that my grandfather, Pvt. Newell authorized the department to send his pay to his wife in Laredo & that he was stationed at Fort McIntosh & he was from Jackson Lake, La.
I have a WW1 helmet with the 3rd infantry div. patch painted on the helmet.

thanks, didn’t know that.
Such a shame that the 13th division was never used as infantry in ww1 in combat, they have one of the best patches!
I agree best patch of the bunch!
WWI was not the first war in which the U.S. had divisions. There were divisions in the Civil War.
Did you say the 93rd was a “nigra” division?
negro, all black division
Thank you, that was very informative. I served with 20th Engineer BGE, 25 ID, 81st BGE (NG), 1st Cav, and 41st ID.
The 4th ID patch is also known as the four LTs pointing north patch. LOL 🤣🤣🤣🤣
good, never heard that one!
I served in the 8th Infantry Division 1/87th B company 1980-83 Baumholder Germany.
what part of the war you were in i remember you lost more ground there you gained you kept bombing allies than Germany my great great great grandfather came back from Passchendaele he worked as a surgery and a doctor Americans dropped a bomb on the field hospital killing everyone inside of the hospital
Thanks to Canada Australia New Zealand Newfoundland they did hold up their side Passchendaele
NO American taking part what part did you have in this war?
I was in the 42nd division NYARNG-72-78
Do you know about any U.S division ever losing its colors & being branded as cowards ?
no, only Custers unit losing its colors and being wiped out. However the colors were recovered.
