Remembered Today:

Handy Table? AEF Divisional Composition on one page


4thGordons

Recommended Posts

I just ran across this in a period publication and thought it might be helpful to folks who have only a passing interest in the AEF or need to check one specific thing rather than wading through the full Order of Battle.

This table was issued by the Statistics Branch of the War Dept. and included in a post war publication "Pershing's Crusaders" (July 1919)

CAVEAT: Units transferred in and out of divisions, divisions were skeletonized, reduced to Cardre etc at different times, in particular Artillery Units were often detached from divisions so this table should be used only as an initial guide to locating/identifying unit identities: So for example in the 33rd Division the 58th Art'y Bde was detached from the division and actually served with the 1 Div at St Mihiel and with the 91st, 32nd and 89th Divisions during Meuse-Argonne while the 33rd Division were supported by French Art'y during Meuse-Argonne (the Fr 212 FA and Fr 318 FA) plus other units at other times. These changes are invisible to this table which describes the official make up of each division.

However, as a starting point to some I thought it may be useful?
