seanmc1114 Posted December 10, 2018 Share #3752 Posted December 10, 2018 Army National Guard Civil Support Teams which is a new unit type to me. This one is worn by a member of the 55th Civil Support Team (Weapons Of Mass Destruction). I cannot identify the DUI. http://minnesotanationalguard.ng.mil/55cst/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seanmc1114 Posted December 10, 2018 Share #3753 Posted December 10, 2018 This is an odd one. The soldier is wearing the 3rd Infantry Division SSI but appears to be wearing the DUI of the 37th Armored Regiment. The only reference I can find to a unit of the 37th Armor serving with the 3rd Division is the 2nd Battalion from 1992 to 1996. Also note that he is wearing a Presidential Unit Citation incorrectly above his left breast pocket and a shooting badge (Sharpshooter or Marksman) on his right pocket flap. The photo is not reversed.

Possibly taken at Knox while going through training. 4th battalion supported the armor school in the 1970s. The soldier may have already received his orders for 3rd ID and had sewn on his SSI.

BEAST Posted December 11, 2018 Share #3758 Posted December 11, 2018 The photo is from the early 60's. Ok, Knox still may work. I found another timeline that shows 4th Bn was assigned there beginning in 1961. Hope you find the answer! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mysteriousoozlefinch Posted December 14, 2018 Share #3763 Posted December 14, 2018 To conform with administrative guidance for the forum I didn't notice until signing out: All of these images come from Army Reserve Magazine (the cover makes that pretty obvious I guess), issues from 1979 to 1984 in this batch. The magazine did not typically cite photographers in their captions, presumably they were Army Reserve or Department of the Army/DoD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patches Posted December 15, 2018 Share #3764 Posted December 15, 2018 Wow I used to have this issue, got them mailed to me briefly during this time. If you ever get your hands on one from this period, I forget which one, there is a small article on a WWII Combat Infantryman Vet still serving in the Army, a 100th Infantry Division vet, serving then with the 77th ARCOM in NYC, he was Jewish, and a Chief Warrant Officer then, he's foted at his desk in the new BDUs and has a Century Division combat patch sewn on, that's one for the Uncommon Combat patch topic you can post .

seanmc1114 Posted January 4, 2019 Share #3775 Posted January 4, 2019 25th Infantry Division with gold on black AIRBORNE tab. That is not an unusual configuration for a current soldier since the 4th Brigade 25th Infantry Division has been airborne since 2005. However, this photo was taken pre-Vietnam War. The soldier is Robert Richard Litwin who was killed in action in Vietnam on June 22, 1967 with the 173rd Airborne Brigade, so this picture pre-dates that assignment and is probably from 1964 or before since he is not wearing the National Defense Service Medal ribbon. What airborne elements did the 25th have in the 50's or early 60's? http://www.vvmf.org/Wall-of-Faces/30903/ROBERT-R-LITWIN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
