Bigduke6 Posted February 23, 2008 Share Posted February 23, 2008 Hi guys! I am searching for the following, need it to be on-line: US Armored Division, circa Nov '42 - March '43 US Infantry Division, circa Nov '42 - March '43 US Corps assets, circa Nov '42 - March '43 US Ranger Regiment, circa Nov '42 - March '43 Most interested in CM-related combat equipment type and count, tanks, mortars, AT guns, artillery, bridging, infantry crew-served, stuff like that. Line and bloc organization is also useful. If I have to pick I guess I would want to look at 1st Armor, 1st Infantry, and 75th Rangers. Thanks guys. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Earl Grey Posted February 24, 2008 Share Posted February 24, 2008 Isn't that a break of operational security, technically speaking? Just joking, of course. But good to know which side you are on, BD6... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dieseltaylor Posted April 7, 2008 Share Posted April 7, 2008 I know the Franch have to double up on words but what do you call a viola as in the stringed instrument? Or the flower? I have looked and is it pensee, and alto? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PPBoyington Posted April 7, 2008 Share Posted April 7, 2008 the instrument is violon or viole for the old one the flower is violette Voilà just mean "here it comes" like when you show something you finished. pensée is a flower also and alto a sort of violin but i am not specialist about music... I dont know any viola if its not the passed form of rape ! sorry to troll the post 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clavicula_Nox Posted April 9, 2008 Share Posted April 9, 2008 You won't find anything on 75th Rangers, the formation wasn't created until after WW2... *edit* Though, yeah, 1st,2nd, and 3rd Battalion obviously were involved, 75th wasn't the parent unit. What do you want on them? I'll try to dig something up. [ April 08, 2008, 08:35 PM: Message edited by: Clavicula_Nox ] 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
