42nd Rainbow Division
Does anyone have information about this WWII unit? I just received a Remington 1906 rifle and a P.38 that was "captured" by a vet from this group and would like to know more about them.
Thanks for any help. Mark |

Saw a wire photo the other day showing a soldier from the 42nd on duty in Iraq!

Ed,
Thanks for the information, I will keep it with the rifle and photo copies of the vets records I received with the rifle and the P.38 AC43 single line code that was sent to me that the vet captured from a surrendering German soldier. Mark |
