Like many experienced U.S. Army infantry units who had served in Europe, the 63rd Infantry Division was expected to play a role in the November, 1945 invasion of the Japanese mainland.<ref> Cpl Rodger W.

Big mouth

we can read: From then until the end of the war, the 63d Division carved a path of "blood and fire" from Sarreguemines through Germany. - wow !

...again, 10 lines further down: From mid-February 1945 until the end of the war, the 63rd Infantry Division made a path of Blood and Fire from Sarreguemines...

is that kind of (redundant) PR bragging required ? Anyway, it sounds somewhat primitive, hollow, in my decent opinion... --62.216.202.220 (talk) 18:12, 11 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

First World War

The patriotic marching song "Home Boys Home" According to the music and lyrics deposited in the Library of Congress, copyright 1018 by A.B. Swan and H. W. Noyes, has a subtext *As played by the band of the 63rd US Infantry and sung by that regiment 3600 voices strong. I am not a military man, but shouldn't this page start before the 2nd world war?
