Irvin Cornwell The 36th sailed in April 1943 North African Theater of Operations landing at Oran Algeria where it was given mountain and amphibious training. Its components at the time of its departure were the 141st 142nd and 143d Infantry Regiments and 155th 131st 132nd and 33d Field Artillery Battalions.

lumping off on September 9. the Division took part in the initial invasion of Italy near Paestuxn in the Qulf of Salerno. The Texans soon overcame stfong resistance and consolidated the beachhead, pushing on to the La Cosa river. Its next action at Mignano Gap called into play the training it had received in mountainous terrain, scaling defended heights running to altitudes near 4.000 feet. In the vicinity of Mt.

Lungo and Mb Rotondo it began a period during which it was under enemy fire for 24 days and nights. Severe winter weather hampered fighting, but eventually the hill masses and strong enemy positions at San Pietro were won at a cost of 2,400 casualities. In lanuory the 36th drove for a crossing of the river and again paid a heavy price for its victory. It went on to Cassino and more than held its own through a period of bitter combat. Until relieved on March id i 12 it was engaged on the bloody Rapido river line.

On May 25. 1944. the Texans were pitted against the enemy at Anzio. The bastion before Rome broke and on lune 4 it helped capture the city and passing beyond it took thousands of German prisoners. At San Raphael.

France, on August 15, 1944, the Texans made another successful amphibious landing and attacked the Nazi lines with zest and confidence. There was none of the hard plodding they had endured in Italy but a runaway fight that augured Hitler's final defeat. After 32 days of fighting the Division gained 300 miles and found themselves in the foothills of the Vosges. The Moselle was crossed in the face of heavy opposition, the 36th moved through dense forests, swept over the Muerthe. breaking enemy resistance and gaining the Alsatian plains.

Victory followed victory but always through severe fighting. Early in April, 1945. it captured Kaiserlautera and sped to the heart of Germany. When the war ended the Division counted many prominent Nazi leaders among its prisoners. Distinguished Unit Citations were awarded the 3d Battalion of the 141st Iniantry Regiment and Company of the 143d Regiment The 36th shoulder patch is a blue flint arrowhead bearing the letter in green.
