2nd Infantry Division

The 2nd Inf. Div. is the most forward deployed, lethal and combat ready division in the US Army. The Second Infantry Division’s mission is to deter war. Should deterrence fail, the soldiers of the Warrior Division stand shoulder-to-shoulder with their Korean allies, ready to defend “freedom’s frontier.” The 2ID is the major U.S. ground combat unit in Korea. The Division’s headquarters is located at Camp Red Cloud, Uijongbu, and its primary mission is to deter war on the Korean peninsula by maintaining a high state of combat readiness and vigilance. 2ID units “SECOND TO NONE” stand shoulder-to-shoulder with first-echelon Korean units immediately south of the DMZ.

The commander of the US Second Infantry Division, a lieutnant general (three-star), was also the commander of the Combined Field Army (CFA). The Combined Field Army is composed of the Third Republic of Korea Army (TROKA) and the Seventh Republic of Korea Corp, which the US Second Infantry Division is attached, a CFA reserve. In April 1990, the United States Department of Defense announced a program to shift gradually the United States military presence in South Korea to a smaller and more supportive role as international political conditions and strengthened South Korean defense capabilities permitted. As part of this program, the United States and South Korea agreed to disband the United States- Republic of Korea Combined Field Army.

Unique force structure and fighting capability not found anywhere else in the US Army or on the Korean peninsula. The Warrior Division possesses more combat power than any other division within the coalition forces. The 2nd Inf. Div. is a robust, combined arms team that contains armor, mechanized infantry, air assault infantry and combat aviation units. The 1st and 2nd Brigades are the maneuver brigades, and have a total of two M1A1 Abrams tank battalions, two Mechanized Infantry battalions (Bradley) and two air assault infantry battalions. Other major commands are the Aviation Brigade, the Division Artillery, the Engineer Brigade, and the Division Support Command. The Division Artillery (DIVARTY) is the largest in the Army and contains more Multiple-Launched Rocket Systems (MLRS) than any other DIVARTY. The Division boasts top quality soldiers and leaders–both American and Korean–who are equipped with the best equipment in the world to include the M1A1 Abrams tank, the M2/3 Bradley Infantry Fighting Vehicle, the AH66 Apache helicopter and the MLRS.

2nd Infantry Division’s organic 3rd brigade, located at Fort Lewis, Washington, is currently being reorganized as an Interim Brigade Combat Team (IBCT). During this transition, the 1st Brigade, 1st Infantry Division (Mechanized) at Fort Riley, Kansas will be the CONUS-based reinforcing Brigade for the Division, and is similar in design to the 2nd ID’s Armor-heavy first Brigade.

The Warrior Division faces a real threat. One of the largest armies in the world sits just across the Demilitarized Zone(DMZ). The fighting stopped in 1953, but the Korean War never officially ended. Being combat ready means many things: excellent training, leadership, equipment and professional support. Warrior division leaders bring all these things together in a training program that is ell-planned, tough, and realistic.

Computer simulation plays a large role in leader and battle staff training. The division periodically conducts a five-day Warfighter exercise at Camp Casey and Camp Hovey. Contributing to the division’s combat readiness and its ability to team with its Korean allies are the division’s Korean Augmentation to the United States Army, or KATUSA soldiers. More than 2,000 KATUSA soldiers are fully integrated into the division’s force structure. They serve as tank crew members, artillerymen, administrative specialists and cooks.

The 15,000 Warriors of the 2nd Inf. Div. are spread across 17 different installations throughout the northwestern quadrant of South Korea. The headquarters is located at Camp Red Cloud in the city of Uijongbu. The bulk of the troops are stationed at Camps Casey and Hovey near Tongduchun. The remaining 14 camps have smaller concentrations of combat and support units. “In front of them all” stands the 1st Battalion, 506th Inf. Regiment, located north of Freedom Bridge and the Imjin River, a scant two kilometers from the Demilitarized Zone (DMZ). The division is in the midst of a major construction and renovation campaign designed to improve the quality of life of our soldiers. By the end of Fiscal Year 1999, more than 30 new barracks construction projects were completed. New recreational and dining facilities, such as the Borderline Cafe and brigade “Super Dayrooms” have been built to provide soldiers a better living environment. A newly built air assault training facility, located between Camps Casey and Hovey, recently trained and graduated more than 80 new air assault qualified Warriors. The school is the first of its kind built and run overseas.

Tough training keeps warriors busy during their stay, but there is more to a tour in the 2nd Inf. Div. than the mission. Quality of life has been, and will remain, a priority in the Warrior Division. Many new barracks facilities have been constructed over the past few years, and construction continues. New clubs have been built, and many existing facilities completely renovated. The Army and Air Force Exchange System and commercial fast food restaurants have opened the door to more dining choices. The information superhighway is also coming to freedom’s frontier: cable Television installation is in the final installation process, and there are plans to bring Internet access to soldiers with the equipment to take advantage of it. Soldiers can also continue their education, often using the creative and flexible programs designed to work around a Warrior’s schedule. There is much to learn outside the classroom–and the gate.

During a one-year tour in Korea, soldiers get an opportunity to enjoy a country with a rich and diverse culture and a unique geography. Ancient traditions continue to flourish in a nation that has rapidly become a modern industrial and economic power. Soldiers can take advantage of regularly scheduled tours to local attractions, such as the Folk Village in Suwon, Mount Sorak, the DMZ, Buddhist temples, and many famous shopping areas. Those who take an interest in their surroundings find their tours much more satisfying. Despite the fact virtually all the division’s 13,000 soldiers serve one-year, unaccompanied tours, families are also part of the 2nd Inf. Div. About 3,000 family members choose to live in Korea while their warriors serve here.

The 2ID is located in a non-command sponsored area. Soldiers are discouraged from bringing their family members to this area. The 2ID is a wartime mission oriented division and soldiers spend the majority of their tour in the field. Those soldiers that bring their family members to this area must live within earshot of the alert siren. This alone limits the areas and the type of quarters that are available. While there are now some very nice apartment complexes in Area I, they are usually located some distance from the installations and the rent is extremely expensive. The soldiers that bring their families normally reside in local houses that have been converted into small (extremely small) rooms and what might be termed efficiency apartments. It is not uncommon to find that toilet, water, and other utilities are shared.

The 2d Infantry Division was activated Oct. 26, 1917, in Beaumont, France. At the time of its activation, the Indianhead Division was composed of one brigade of U.S. Infantry, one brigade of U.S. Marines, one brigade of artillery and various supporting units. The 2d Inf. Div.’s first fight came at the Battle of Belleau-Wood. Later it shattered a four-year stalemate on the battlefield during the Chateau-Thierry campaign that followed. The division won hard-fought victories at Soissons and Mont Blanc. Finally, the Indianhead Division participated in the Meuse-Argonne offensive, which brought an end to the war. On Nov. 11, 1918, the Armistice was declared, and the 2nd Inf. Div. marched into Germany where it performed occupational duties until April 1919.

Upon returning to the United States, the division was stationed at Fort Sam Houston, Texas. It remained there for the next 23 years, serving as an experimental unit, testing new concepts and innovations for the Army. In 1940, the 2d Inf. Div. was the first command reorganized under the new triangular concept, which provided for three separate regiments in each division.

As part of the build up for Operation Overlord, the Normandy invasion, the 2d Inf. Div. was transferred from Fort Sam Houston to Ireland in October 1943. On June 7, 1944, D Day +1, the division stormed ashore at bloody Omaha Beach. While other units were stalled by the determined German resistance, the Indianheads blasted through the hedgerows of Normandy. After a fierce, 39-day battle, the 2d Inf. Div. took the vital port city of Brest, which was liberated on Sept. 18, 1944. From positions around St. Vith, Belgium, and throughout the Battle of the Bulge, the 2nd Inf. Div. held fast, preventing the enemy from seizing key roads leading to the cities of Liege and Antwerp. Resuming the offensive on Feb. 6, 1945, the division joined the race to annihilate the fleeing Wehrmacht.

Though expecting to participate in the scheduled invasion of Japan, V-J Day found the 2d Inf. Div. back home again. After a series of stateside moves, the Indianheads were stationed in the state of Washington. From their Fort Lewis base, they conducted arctic, air transport, amphibious, and maneuver training.

With the outbreak of hostilities in Korea during the summer of 1950, the 2d Inf. Div. was alerted for movement to the Far East. The division arrived in Korea via Pusan on July 23, becoming the first unit to reach Korea directly from the United States. Initially employed piecemeal, the entire division was committed to relieve the 24th Infantry Division at the Naktong River Line on Aug. 24, 1950. The 2d Inf. Div. was the first unit to break out of the Pusan perimeter. It later led the Eighth Army’s drive to the Manchurian border. When Chinese forces entered the fight, soldiers of the 2nd Inf. Div. protected the rear flank of the Eighth Army as it retired to the south. In April and May 1951, the 2d Inf. Div. was instrumental in smashing the communist spring offensive. On April 9, 1953, the division was moved to a rear area, and on Aug. 20, 1954 — four years after its last unit had arrived in Korea – - the 2nd Inf. Div. re-deployed to the United States.

In the summer of 1954, the 2d Inf. Div. was transferred from Korea back to Fort Lewis, Wash., where it remained for only two years until being transferred to Alaska in August 1956. On Nov. 8, 1957, the Department of the Army announced the inactivation of the 2nd Inf. Div. However, in the spring of 1958, the Department of the Army reactivated the 2nd Inf. Div. at Fort Benning, Ga. Fort Benning remained the home of the new 2d Inf. Div. from 1958 to 1965. In March 1962 the 2d Inf. Div. was designated as a Strategic Army Corps (STRAC) unit.

As a result of increasing tensions on the Korean peninsula, the 2d Inf. Div. returned to the Republic of Korea in July 1965. North Korean forces had increased border incursions and infiltration attempts, and the 2d Inf. Div. helped halt these attacks. Since then, ROK and U.S. forces have worked side by side, guarding the Demilitarized Zone.
