The 3rd Infantry Division was activated at Camp Greene, North Carolina, on November 21, 1917. During World War I, as a member of the American Expeditionary Force to Europe the division earned its name as the "Rock of the Marne," when surrounding units retreated, the 3rd Infantry Division remained.
Headquartered at Fort Stewart, Georgia, the 3rd Infantry Division has a rich and storied history. Sixty Dogface Soldiers have been awarded the Medal of Honor, the most of any division in the U.S. Army.
The division fought during two world wars, the Korean War and the War on Terrorism. Even to this day current brigades of 3rd ID, the 3rd Combat Aviation Brigade and 2nd Brigade Combat Team, have recently deployed to Europe to deter aggression against our NATO partners and allies. The 1st Armored Brigade Combat Team, 3rd Infantry Division is currently in South Korea on a nine-month rotation to support the United States’ commitment to southeast Asia partners and allies.
