April 11, 1918 - 36th Infantry Division Soldiers Marching, Fort Worth, Texas
The division left Newport News, Va., in July and August of 1918 for France. The 71st Brigade of the division saw combat at St. Etiennes-Arnes, and on Oct. 10, 1918, the entire division relieved the 2nd Infantry Division and pushed the Germans to the Aisne River.
When the war was over, the division saw occupation duty, then returned to Camp Bowie before being released from active duty on June 20, 1919. After the war, the 36th was reorganized and became an all-Texas division, and the Oklahoma units became part of the 45th Infantry Division.

My uncle served in the 36th during WW2. No idea how a guy from Pa. ended up with them. I have some of his militaria, including 2 Bronze Stars and some SS items that were removed from a concentration camp guard.Natural law. Sons are put on this earth to trouble their fathers.

Ronald Reagan:"Government's view of the economy could be summed up in a few short phrases: If it moves, tax it. If it keeps moving, regulate it. And if it stops moving, subsidize it."
Homer: "Bart...there's 2 things I know about women. Never give them nicknames like "jumbo" or "boxcar" and always keep receipts...it makes you look like a business man."
