63ID

The 63rd Infantry Division (63ID), known as the "Blood and Fire" division, was activated in 1943 during World War II. It was deployed to the European Theater, where it participated in the Rhineland and Central Europe campaigns, advancing through France and Germany. The 63ID played a significant role in breaching the Siegfried Line and capturing key German towns, contributing to the Allied victory in Europe. After the war, the division was inactivated in 1945 but was later reactivated as part of the Army Reserve, continuing its legacy of service.
