    The reason I locked the TIMH is so it would be easy to read the items listed easily.

    So I thought I would start this thread for those would like to make a mention.

    Today -29 Sep -- TIMH mentioned the 27th Division was mentioned.
    Currently, the 27th is a BDE size unit, with HQ in Syracuse, NY

    In 1955, the 27th Inf was re-organized as an Armored Division

    The division was reorganized in 1968 as the 27th Armored Brigade, a unit of the 50th Armored Division.[17]

    The 27th Armored Brigade was reorganized as an Infantry brigade in 1975 and aligned with the 42nd Infantry Division.[18]

    In 1985 the 27th Infantry Brigade was activated as part of the New York Army National Guard, and assigned as the "round-out" brigade of the Army's 10th Mountain Division.[19]

    The 27th Brigade was later reorganized as the 27th Infantry Brigade Combat Team, and reestablished use of the 27th Infantry Division's NYD shoulder sleeve insignia.[20] The 27th Infantry Brigade carries on the lineage and history of the 27th Infantry Division.

    I would like to see it re-established as a full division.
