Does the 334th infantry regiment of the 84th Division have anything in common with the 334th Enginners?
Not a dumb question. I created a quick reference table for each Infantry Division and their associated infantry regiments, engineer battalion and other attached units. It explains how the numbering system worked for units that were part of a division.
Table of Divisions and Regiments
Note the column on the far RIGHT has the number of each engineer unit that was a part of an infantry division. The 334th is not in this column. Apparently the 334th Engineers were an independent unit.
Keep this table handy. And please let me know if you find any mistakes in it. The Airborne Divisions moved and reassigned some regiments so that could be in error.
