A Good Review of a generally little known Infantry Division
The 24th Infantry is another one of those solid , non flashy units of the US Army. Like the 4th Infantry Divisions that can be counted upon to get the job done. Sadly these units never really get the credit due them. That and when they have a problem like when the 24th had a rough start in the Korean War. Then they get all kinds of negative reviews. But then who says life is fair? Right?
