THE 34th Inf. Divn.,(RED BULL), arrived in North Ireland ON Jan. 26, 1942.
the 34th trained there for the invasion of North Africa on Nov. 7,1942.
Volunteers from the 34thI.D. provided 80% of the men for a newly formed
1st. Ranger Battalion and many of them participitaded with the British
Commandos in the famous raid on Dieppe,France. The only African American
divn. I knew of was the 92nd. and they were in Italy for a short time.
Hope this can be of little help. Roque Riojas 1st. Bn. 135th Inf. Regt. 34th I.D.
