I don't know how much interest there is in this setting still beyond myself. A couple days ago, something got me to thinking about the combat units of the Army Reserve that existed up until 1965. They were referred to as the Reinforcing Reserve, the surviving divisions after several were reduced to independent brigades in 1963. The 1965 letter of instruction directing their inactivation stated that "The USAR Reinforcing Reserve units are not included in any plans" before ordering their disbandment in place of the Selected Reserve Force.
What follows is a best effort to compile at least the combat units of each of the ten USAR combat infantry divisions active when the war in Twilight 1964 began and their home stations. Unfortunately, while some digging uncovered records on most armor/cavalry/artillery/infantry units, it was difficult to find anything on supporting units. Additionally, many artillery units did not have their gun-type included in anything I was able to uncover. 63rd Infantry Division -3rd Battle Group, 21st Infantry (ex-63rd Recon Co.): Santa Barbara,

Hi Mcchordsage I remember this alternative version of the Twilight War. It was a very good read if a bit far out there. I saved it all onto a CD and I posted it all up on here about five years ago or so. I think everyone who read it liked it.
I've been checking this list with the first and second additions of the American Combat Vehicle Handbook. None of the ten divisions were listed as reformed in the Twilight War, at least not before the U.S. government split into CIVGOV and MILGOV factions. After the splitting of the U.S. Government I believe there were militia units attached to both factions. It is conceivable that either faction could reform these divisions and fill them with militia or new recruits to increase the number and the loyalties of the forces under their command in CONUS. I don't think raising the manpower would be a problem, but equipping and arming them would certainly be a problem. More likely divisions in name only, but of brigade size with some weak regiments and battalions. But they would still be an organised force under a command structure, and more accountable to either faction than irregular militia forces. Do you have any more information on the organisation of of U.S. forces in this period? |

Most of them had been converted to Army Reserve Commands or support commands (63rd, 90th, 77th, 83rd, 96th, 94th, 103rd, 81st) or separate brigades (102nd men formed the 205th Infantry Brigade, 96th men formed the 191st Infantry Brigade, 94th men formed the 187th Infantry Brigade). None of these units continued the lineages of the WW2 or 1950s-1960s combat divisions, however. They were authorized to wear the shoulder sleeve insignia but the army did not consider them a descendant of the original division. I think that's what most folks do with the ARCOMs and the training divisions not mentioned as being fed overseas (or in the case of the 77th, straight into the NYC mess). Makes sense, though I imagine a lot of the cadres would be gone, that the others were similarly used as command formations for militia or other ad-hoc formations. It depends on what you want to know. There's a lot of material out there. 1962 is an interesting time for the Army, organizationally, which is a euphemism for being a mess. Units were almost all still on the old Pentomic order of battle, and ROAD was right around the corner. On top of that, quite a few of the Cavalry, Infantry, and Artillery battalions would be inactivated then reactivated in the regular army at a later date.

Massive formatting overhaul for clarity, editing changes, illustrations added, units added.
Considering that this is a fairly niche subject without a lot of interest, this will probably serve as the "definitive" version for now, unless someone has corrections in the future. |

Underestimated my own devotion to this: New version features a good start into National Guard divisions of 1962, an Annex listing all divisions of all components of the US Army and home stations in 1962, some graphical fixes, and a bit of light editing.
Next version will have all the National Guard information I can find in it. |

I served with the 4/92 Field Artillery (8" M110s, Reserve) in the late 1980's. I know it was in existence since WW2 and won a Presidential Unit Citation in Korea. The unit was originally headquartered in Clearfield PA but was moved to Erie PA in the mid-1960s. Headquarters, Alfa Battery, and Service Battery were in Erie. Bravo Battery was in Meadville PA, and Charley Battery was in New Castle PA. We were originally part of Second Army but got moved to First Army in the 1970s. We were officially "disbanded" in 1993 when the 8" SP was removed from service and replaced by the MLRS. Our guns were sold to Turkey in 1993. I didn't see the 4/92 FA on your list.

Sure, it'll go in the next round swaghauler!
The non-divisional units aren't anywhere close to complete. Not within any sort of circle of probable error even. What's on that list is whatever came up during my other research, essentially. Most of that means units that received Reserve Commendations in 1960-1963, got mentioned in Army Reserve Magazine articles, or cropped up in US Army Expansion, 1961-1962. There's a lot of talk in DoA reports about numbers of units called up or included in different force strengths but very little on what those units were, making it hard for me to get a firm grasp on things like corps or army artillery assets. Your unit was called up during the Berlin Crisis, though, for the record. I suppose I should just comb the Field Artillery Lineage Series volumes for non-divisional units and sweep the CARL digital library for sources again. Frankly, there's been so little response overall it's hard to stay motivated. Expanding the National Guard division coverage is fairly easy and I've still called a halt on it. |

New version now includes: 26th ID, 40th AD, 48th AD, 49th AD, 50th AD, all non-divisional USAR artillery units, formatting updates, alterations to artillery weapon type formatting.
At the risk of falling prey to hubris, I'm calling it here except for future formatting or editing fixes. There's a good deal of information available on the Regular Army divisions of the early 1960s and it doesn't really appeal to me, so, National Guard and Army Reserve is where it stops. Hopefully someone will get use out of this. If you have any information, comments, critiques, or general suggestions PM me or post a comment to this web zone like swaghauler did. |

Thanks! This will also be useful in the Red Dawn timeline, where new divisions are being raised by the U.S. Army in the aftermath of the Soviet-led invasion.

There's a great document the Army put out in 1963 looking back at the lessons learned during the Berlin Crisis and Cuban Missile Crisis build-ups. It's got a lot of interesting lessons for how the big wheels were looking at preparing for the next crisis (and maybe war).
(It's a three-parter.) My basic assumption (I know, ass out of you and me, yada yada, we're talking about an imaginary conflict) is that the ROAD reorganization never gets carried through as the Army desperately tries to activate, man, and equip the units on active duty as well as reserve component formations. Everything listed here is still on the "Pentomic" or ROCID TOE from circa 1960 through late 1963. |

Interest has probably peaked, but here we are again.
Restored cut USAR non-divisional transportation unit content, added non-divisional USAR and NG transportation units, added new annex explaining what a tactical carrier battalion was (warning original writing here plus, gasp, GM advice), added non-divisional infantry battle groups to NG section, did some more editing, fixed errors in the table of contents. Bonus zip file link with a bundle of some circa 1960-1962 US Army Field Manuals of the era I've been consulting in my own game planning. |

Because this has laid fallow long enough, work on the unit locations part of a vehicle guide. Not much work progressing on it since the majority of American equipment from the era can already be found on Paul Mulcahy's excellent site. If anything, the vehicle section proper will end being more of a listing/description of the different available equipment, usage, and where-to-find-stats sort of deal.

Where have I been? Surprisingly, the holidays haven't managed to quite kill me. This new edition (Version 12, v11.8-11.10 were internal-only) includes some big overhauls. Finally having Microsoft Word reinstalled, managed to track down where that extra page kept coming from in the PDF.
Data wise: 29th Infantry Brigade, 92nd Infantry Brigade, tons of non-divisional National Guard artillery and air defense artillery, revisions to divisional data, more independent infantry battle groups, units activated for the Missile Crisis or Berlin Wall updated, editing corrections, and more. |

Thanks for all this work. I came across this in a Google search on Pentomic stuff for my own research, and was happy to see that there's still an active community for T2K - the only RPG that ever got me interested.
I notice you don't have the order of battle for the Californian 49th Infantry Division. If you'll allow me, this is the 1960 OOB. I also have all the active army divisional OOBs around here if you're interested in fleshing it out. Actually, see if this Google book preview works for you. It has nearly all active and reserve-component divisions from 1917-2004, broken down into eras. The book is Infantry Division Components of the US Army by Timothy Aumiller 49th Infantry Division Division Headquarters 579th Engineer Combat Battalion 49th Signal Battalion 49th Aviation Company 49th Military Police Company 49th Infantry Division Band 1st Tank Battalion, 149th Armor 2d Reconnaissance Squadron, 149th Armor 1st Battle Group 159th Infantry 2d Battle Group, 159th Infantry 1st Battle Group, 184th Infantry 2d Battle Group, 184th Infantry 3d Battle Group, 184th Infantry Division Artillery 1st Battalion, 143d Field Artillery 2d Battalion, 143d Field Artillery 3dt Battalion, 143d Field Artillery 4th Battalion, 143d Field Artillery 5th Battalion, 143d Field Artillery 6th Battalion, 143d Field Artillery Division Support Command 126th Medical Battalion 749th Ordnance Battalion 249th Transportation Battalion 49th Quartermaster Company 49th Administration Company source: http://www.militarymuseum.org/49thORBAT60.html |

I actually have a physical copy of Infantry, Armor/Cavalry, and Artillery Battalions. The issue with the online preview version of Infantry Division Components is it doesn't show the 49th's 1960 order of battle. You'll see them both cited in the citations at the end of the main document. I didn't use the pure Military Museum list for mine because Battalions... has some different combat units. It's substantially the same, though, that's what I started from. Active units aren't making it on the OOB document because they're fairly well known without accessing any deeper research military then wikipedia, even for that era. The divisions themselves are/will be in the Locations and Equipment part; regular, National Guard, Reserve, and AUS. Thanks Shrike! Here's the 49th ID added, thanks to (non-flying) Hell-fish's assistance! |

Updates: Some units added to the non-divisional reserve list (Including a JAG War Crimes Investigations unit); biggest addition is a lot of towns added for Reserve units. Not finished combing through the papers yet but the Signal Corps, Transportation, Chemical Warfare, Artillery, and Engineer units all have their home towns if available to me. Adjutant General units are about 1/2 finished but I'm running out of energy going through broken OCR'd newspaper pages.

Tried to include a very interesting report from, if I remember right, CIA archives of NATO readiness status in Europe in 1961. It wouldn't attach but if anyone's interested PM me for it. |
