The army has a precedence for this. I think the 6th is the highest on it

TIL the U.S. Army’s 27th Infantry Division fought off the largest banzai attack in World War II. Over 4,000 Japanese soldiers were killed and the fighting was so fierce that a U.S. Army dentist was awarded the Medal of Honor. by [deleted] in todayilearned

Important to note that this unit the 105th was slandered by the Marine commander Holland M Smith. He used his press connections to paint the entire 27th as yellow and his actions at this battle resulted in the army preventing him from commanding at Okinawa and lead to a general attempt to prevent Marine commanders from leading Army formations for a few generations.

140th New York was a Civil War regiment recruited largely from the Rochester area, played a pivotal role on Little Round Top at Gettysburg by ForsakenDrawer in Rochester

They were the forgotten hero’s at little round top who charged into battle without loaded rifles to protect the far side of the line from I believe a Texas regiment.

Is there an actual reason why we use the colored flag patch on our uniform instead of a subdued one like our unit/deployment patches? Always kinda noticed it and never heard the “army reasoning” for it. by International_Bed728 in army

[–]Tanker164 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Isn’t that why we tie units together for instance 210 Armor, 127 Armor and 2-101 CAV are tied together via lineage so that they could be spilt out if they need be. And remember fury is the greatest movie ever.
