"See
You In A Year - 1940"
The federal activation of
the 32nd Infantry Division
The soldier's face is young, with the
expression of excitement and pride in his eyes. Only a
short while ago was he playing ball, stocking grocery
shelves or marching every Thursday night with the "boys"
in his home town National Guard Armory.
Now, he finds himself far from home for
the first time, and preparing for the unknown in 1940.
December 7th, 1941 will change this soldier and his
buddies lives forever, but the 32nd will be one of the
first Divisions sent overseas, prepared and trained
better than any other Division, active or reserve.
With his hand painted "grip" he has
arrived and is ready to train.
