The Third Division Third Recon F TroopWelcomes You

One of the oldest military organizations in the United States, the 3rd Infantry Division has participated in almost every major conflict our Country has been involved in. During World War One, the Division earned the nickname "The Rock of the Marne" for it's outstanding performance in one of the pivotal campaigns of the war.

• In World War Two, the Division fought from the North African landings in 1942, and into Tunisia. Taking part in the amphibious landings in Sicily, they crossed over into mainland Italy, and experienced hard fighting up the peninsula.
  
• The Third took part in the Anzio landings in February 1944. After the fall of Rome four months later, the Division was withdrawn from Italy, and landed in Southern France to create the "hammer" to the "anvil" of the armies that landed in Normandy.
  
• The Third fought its’ way into Germany, and at the end of the War was one of the few American Divisions to have been in combat continuously from the start to the end of the American involvement, and still end up in Germany at the finish.

Our Main purpose is to honor the World War II Veteran. The secondary purpose of this group is to educate the unit members and the public also to preserve the history and tradition of the 3rd Infantry Division, the World War II Veteran and World War II. We accomplish this through participation in reenactments, parades, demonstrations, displays, and any other events that are related to World War II

We are a reenacting group based in Wisconsin. If you feel this is a hobby for you please feel free to e-mail us a Info and we will get information to you.
