    Nice early set of tans friend. The 3rd Div. was one of the workhorse Infantry divisions.
    It was the only American division to fight the Germans on all fronts in the European theater.
    They spent 531 days in combat. 34 men of the division won The congressional medal of honor including Lt. Audi Murphy. They suffered the highest casualties of any American Division during WWII with almost 26000 men killed and wounded. Got yourself a good one buddy.
