That is correct, it was called up in 1943.--Berndd11222 17:07, 15 January 2006 (UTC)

the comment about the origan of the unit insigna does not match what is in the division history. according to divion history it was MacAthor as division chief of staff that said" the division streach across america like a rainbow" because it had units from every then state in the union. for this see the division's wed sit.

plus where is the history about the patch itself. during WWI and WWII it was a half circle no it is a quarter??? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Sfrigger (talk • contribs) 05:59, 17 October 2007 (UTC)
