Ninety-Fourth Infantry Division

The Ninety-Fourth Infantry Division was a United States Army division formed during World War II, primarily composed of National Guard units from the Midwest. Known as the "Okie" division because many soldiers were from Oklahoma and surrounding states, it specialized in infantry combat. The division trained in the U.S. and participated in campaigns in Europe, including Germany. After the war, it was deactivated but was reactivated later. Its motto, "Trail Blazers," reflects its role in advancing U.S. military efforts during the war. The division's history highlights the contributions of citizen-soldiers in America's military history.
