Texas Trained Division at Front in Korea War
The Indian Head emblem of the 2nd Infantry Division, a long familiar Texan symbol, led rapid moves from the beachhead to front lines in Korea. Formerly based in San Antonio and a rugged regular Army unit, the division trained at St Sam Houston in 1942 and Camp McCoy in 1942-43 before World War II actions in Europe. It fought from Normandy to Brest and into the Siegfried Line, with notable assault on Hill 142 near St Lo on July 11, 1944, and later entered Czechoslovakia before World War I roots at Bourmont in 1917. The 2nd division has ties to Texas, with the 1st Cavalry long stationed at Ft. Bliss, El Paso.
