Talk:1st Armored Division (United States)

message: Here is an important point: US Armies NEVER have Organic elements. Therefore, a division can never be said to be "part" of an Army. Divisions can be "Assigned" to an Army. Likewise, with Corps. Again, Divisions can be "Assigned" to Corps. Armies and Corps are ONLY a Headquarters and Headquarters Company, a Corps Artillery Command, and and a Corps Support Command.

message: Wow, there is 4 years of history (including an Iraq deployment) missing for 1st Brigade. In the Moving to Ft. Bliss section, it indicated the Brigade left Germany, activated at Bliss and began converting. This is not true. The Brigade activated in Oct 2008 at Bliss then deployed in Dec 2009 to Kirkuk, Iraq until Dec 2010. They started started re-flagging units in Jan 2011. DocHellfish (talk) 05:54, 21 August 2014 (UTC)

message: Look at the two column format I used for the Order Of Battle. I found it over on Wikitionary, and it seems to work, but it needs refinement. Maybe some of our wikiprogrammers can do the tweaking? - SSG Cornelius Seon (Retired) 13:51, 30 June 2007 (UTC)

thread_title: ORBAT

message: THe article doesn't discuss the future structure of the Division. On top of that, the reasoning behind the future structure should be discussed. Why does this division get 6 BCT's when most of the others have only four? I can't think of a good reason to overload this one division, and I can't find sources to explain why. Does anyone have any sources to enlighten the subject? -Ed!(talk)(Hall of Fame) 20:49, 26 March 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: The division will actually have a maximum of 5 brigades - pending what will happen with the 170th Infantry Brigade. If the 170th moves back to the USA it might become the 1st Armored's 5th Brigade... but that depends on so many factors that for the next two to three years the division will remain a 4 BCT unit. --noclador (talk) 15:29, 20 April 2010 (UTC)

message: I've tagged the article for the number of changes that have been made from 16-20 September. Namely, the article has a lot of additions that need footnotes to reliable sources. See WP:CITE for how Wikipedia works footnotes. Also, the article should be written from a neutral point of view which it does not currently have. Also, it looks like some of the images need to be looked over for copyright because a few that have been uploaded violated copyright. —Ed!(talk) 15:45, 21 September 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: A few other issues: The article needs to be wikified with links and non-military jargain so that it is easier for a general audience to read. It will also probably need to be shortened since its size has increased from 60K to 130K. Take a look at the 10th Mountain Division article, it shows the kind of end-goal for how an article should look and read. —Ed!(talk) 15:49, 21 September 2013 (UTC)
