Hey Coup , welcome home and welcome here. Always good to have another Cav. Trooper around. 3/5 Cav came over with the 9th ID but was sent up to the DMZ right before Tet 68 and we stayed there assigned to who ever would have us

Default 9th Inf Div

To my knowledge, there was no 10th Cav in the 9th Inf Div. The original TO&E had the 3rd Squadron, 5th Cavalry (LT's alma mater) as the divisional cav unit. The division was leg heavy, with only two battalions of mechanized infantry out of 9 infantry battalions. I had the distinct honor of serving in the 2-47th Inf (Mech) throughout my entire first tour. Samatteroffact, we're having a reunion of 47th Infantry Regiment alumni at Ft. Benning, next April. For those interested, pm me, and I'll shoot you some info. Or you can click on
www.angelfire.com/tx3/247infantry for all the hot skinny.
