The 18th INF was one of the first us infantry units deployed and in combat in africa. They then participated in the invasion of sicily where they captured mount pellegrino. They caught a break storming omaha beach, arriving 30 minutes late due to the clutter nearshore. From there they would go on to the battle of the bulge and the crossing of the remagen.
In Omnia Paratus, til the last round.
