The U.S. 91st Infantry Division, also known as the “Wildcats,” is a formation of the United States Army. Established on August 25, 1942, during World War II, it was one of the first American divisions to engage in combat in Europe, landing at Omaha Beach on D-Day, June 6, 1944. The division saw action throughout the European Theater, participating in battles such as the Battle of the Bulge and the liberation of concentration camps like Dachau. Post-WWII, the division was inactivated, but reestablished in the Korean War, and has since been active during various peacetime and combat operations, including service in Vietnam, Bosnia, Iraq, and Afghanistan. The 91st Infantry Division’s distinctive insignia is a wildcat with a torch, symbolizing its motto, “We Lead the Way.”
