From Wikipedia.
Yesterday, I posted about the 21st Field Artillery passing very rapidly (30-40 mph) through downtown Sycamore, Illinois, in May 1941. I was unable to find out where they were coming from or going to, but I did find other information.
The unit was first organized for World War I, also fought in World War II, Vietnam and the Persian Gulf.
** Constituted 1 July 1916 in Regular Army as the 21st Field Artillery.
** Organized 1 June 1917 at Camp Wilson, Texas.
** Assigned 12 December 1917 to 5th Division.
** Inactivated 23 September 1921 at Camp Bragg, North Carolina.

The USS North Carolina (BB-55) My all-time favorite warship. As an elementary school student in North Carolina, I donated nickels and dimes to save this ship back in the early sixties.
