Would like some opinions on some games

RE: Would like some opinions on some games
Sure, I remember some about the unit history. I'm not sure if their ever was a book written about them or not. That's something to Google for sure.

758th fought in Italy in 43 and that's the only front they seen in WW2. They were the first army unit (or one of the first) to integrated whites into the unit. They did that before they fought in Korea. By then they were redesignated 64th Armor Rgt. They fought several actions in Korea till the end in 53. They, of course, fought in Desert Storm and Iraqi Freedom. Desert Storm is were 1-64th AR BN got the name "Desert Rogues".

I learned all that stuff about the crest and history before my various military boards I went to. Its good to know that stuff about your units history IMO. The info on the crest is interesting as well.

The black fighting African elephant represents two things, the history of 'heavy' armor that goes back to ancient times and the black stature of the unit at the time of formation. The 2 white tusks represent the 2 white officers leading the unit at formation. There is more to the crest than the shield you see but its all good stuff to know.
