100th Training Division Insignia Patch
Original OD(Olive Drab) Subdued Patch
Todays 100th Training Division (Leadership Development) was originally formed as the 100th Division in the National Army, constituted on 23 July 1918 and organized in October 1918 at Camp Bowie in Texas. Like so many of the second wave of divisions that were constituted in the summer of 1918, the 100th did not deploy overseas and was demobilized within a month of the signing of the November 11 Armistice.
Reconstituted in 1921 in the Organized Reserves, the Division was ordered into active Federal service and redesignated as the 100th Infantry Division, leading to the nicknames Century Division and Soldiers of the Century. Deployed to France in November 1944, the Division eventually took part in three campaigns, earning yet another nicknameSons of Bitchefor its defensive stand outside the village of Bitche during the Battle of the Bulge; after repulsing numerous German assaults, the Division claimed Bitche in the middle of March 1945.
Following World War II, the 100th Infantry Division was twice designated as an Airborne unit, as well as a Replacement Training and Institutional Training Division. In the 21st century, the Division was designated as the 100th Division (Operational Support) and finally, in 2018, the 100th Training Division (Leadership Development). It is currently headquartered at Fort Knox, Kentucky.
