The 29th Infantry Division, also known as the "Blue and Gray" is based at Fort Belvoir, Virginia. It is a formation of the United States Army National Guard and contains units from Kentucky, Maryland, Virginia, North Carolina, and West Virginia.
Formed in 1917, the division deployed to France as a part of the American Expeditionary Force during World War I. Called up for service again in World War II, the division's 116th Regiment, attached to the First Infantry Division, was in the first wave of troops ashore during Operation Overlord, the landings in Normandy, France. It supported a special Ranger unit tasked with clearing strong points at Omaha Beach. The rest of the 29th ID came ashore later then advanced to Saint-Lô, and eventually through France and into Germany itself
