26th Infantry Division
Since October 22, 2009
Massachusetts, United States 
The division was assigned to III Corps of the Ninth United States Army, Twelfth United States Army Group. It was shipped from the United States directly to France, and was never sent to Britian. The 26th Infantry Division landed in France at Cherbourg and Utah Beach on September 7, 1944, but did not enter combat as a division until a month later. Elements were on patrol duty along the coast from Carteret to Siouville from September 13 to the 30th. The 328th Infantry saw action with the 80th Infantry Division from October 5 to October 15. The division was then reassigned to XII Corps of the Third United States Army. On October 7, the 26th relieved the 4th Armored Division in the Salonnes-Moncourt-Canal du Rhine au Marne sector, and maintained defensive positions. The division launched a limited objective attack on October 22, in the Moncourt woods. On November 8, the division went on the offensive, took Dieuze on November 20, advanced across the Saar River to Saar Union, and captured it on December 2, after house-to-house fighting. Reaching Maginot fortifications on December 5, it regrouped, entering Saareguemines on December 8. Around this time it was reassigned to III Corps.
