27
Q

John Wickham

A

In October 1983, the Army Chief of Staff, General John Wickham, announced his decision to create light infantry divisions

28
Q

Light Infantry Divisions

A

General Wickham explained the strategic need for the new light forces. A key feature of these units was their strategic mobility; because of their streamlined size and composition, they could be transported aboard Air Force aircraft to potential trouble spots. This deployability was to be attained by removing much heavy equipment, firepower, and support infrastructure from the light division while leaving it with a relatively large “slice” (50%) of combat troops.

29
Q

Another reason

A

Wickham calculated that light infantry divisions would fill a void in American military capability. Light divisions could be moved more quickly and more easily than could heavier forces. Moreover, light infantry units would be better suited for many crisis situations, such as counterinsurgency or other low intensity-type operations, than were ponderous tank or mechanized forces. General Wickham announced the creation of five light infantry divisions. Two of these – the 7th and the 25th Divisions – would come from the reorganization of existing active divisions. Two others (6th and 10th Mountain) would be new divisions.

30
Q

THE 10th MOUNTAIN DIVISION SHOULDER PATCH (SSI)

A

The 10th Mountain shoulder patch consists of a white-bordered powder keg. The powder keg is in blue, with two red bayonets crossed to form the Roman numeral “X” or ten are superimposed on it. The bayonets represent the Infantry and the numerical designation of the Division. The word “MOUNTAIN” is white on a blue tab affixed directly above the patch.

31
Q

DISTINCTIVE UNIT INSIGNIA

A

Description. A gold color metal and enamel device 1 1/8th inches in height, consisting of a white mountain formed by five peaks above a blue wavy bar and crossed in front by two red bayonets points up; behind the mountain peaks, a glory of gold rays radiate from the center, enclosed by a gold scroll inscribed “CLIMB TO GLORY” in blue letters. Symbolism. The White Mountain symbol and the blue wave represent the Division’s World War II combat history in the Northern Apennines and the Po Valley campaigns in Italy. The crossed bayonets are symbolic of wartime service and further suggest the Roman numeral X, the unit’s numerical designation. Scarlet is symbolic of courage and mortal danger; blue denotes steadfastness and loyalty. The gold is for excellence and white symbolic of mountaintops and high aspirations.

Q

PFC JOHN D. MAGRATH CONGRESSIONAL MEDAL OF HONOR (Posthumous)

A

In the shadow of Monte della Spe, on a hill that had no name, only a number—Hill 909 – many men lost their lives on 14 April 1945, a day of incredible courage and carnage. PFC John D.
