History of the 7th Infantry Division
The BAYONET was forged in the fields of France, tempered on the frozen tundra and mountains of the Aleutians, the coral atolls and islands of the South Pacific, balanced in the mountains and rice paddies of Korea, and then honed razor sharp in the Jungles of Panama. The Boyonet or the 7the Infantry Division as if is officially known, continued to stand guard in Korea after the Korean War. The division continued to man the outpost line in strife ridden Korea until 1971 when the unit was returned to U.S. soil for the first time since 1943. The division was assigned to Fort Lewis, WA and deactivated for a brief period of time. In 1975, it was reformed at it’s old home Fort Ord, CA. In October 1984, the division was redisignated as the 7th Infantry Division (Light). The Lightfighters of the Boyonet Division were called to Honduras in 1988 for “Operation Golden Pheasant” and to Panama in 1989-90 for “Operation Nimrod Dancer” and “Operation Just Cause”.
In 1993, the 7th Infantry Division was once again de-activated after being moved to Ft. Lewis, WA when the DOA closed Ft. Ord. In 1999, the 7th ID was again activated as a National Guard comman unit seeing many of its soldiers deployed to Iraq and Afganistan before once again being deactivated in 2006. There are rumors that the 7th ID will again be an active division in today’s Army, but we will just have to what and see the fate of the BAYONET.
