3rd Infantry Division History:

The 3rd Infantry Division, nicknamed the "Rock of the Marne," was established in 1917, and is known for its extensive combat history. It earned its' nickname for a heroic stand during the Second Battle of the Marne in World War I, and has since fought in World War II, the Korean War, and Operation Iraqi Freedom and New Dawn, among others. The division was the first U.S. conventional unit to enter Baghdad in 2003, and has earned more Medal of Honor recipients than any other division.

🇺🇸 We run to remember.

Dogface Soldiers joined first responders and community members for the Patriot Day 5K at Forsyth Park in Savannah, Georgia.

Together, we honored the lives lost on Sept. 11, 2001, and the courage and sacrifice of the first responders who answered the call that day.

More than two decades later, we remember their legacy and stand united as Soldiers, first responders and neighbors.

🇺🇸 Enjoy the long weekend — but make the right call.

As Dogface Soldiers head into Labor Day weekend, remember that one bad decision behind the wheel can have lasting consequences.

Before you start the weekend, take a few minutes to read our latest article on the dangers of drunk driving and why having a plan matters. If you drink, don’t drive. Use a designated driver, call a ride, and look out for your fellow Soldiers.

Have fun, stay safe, and come back ready to fight. 🐾

🚁 Hate to see you leave, love to see you fly. Thank you for twenty years of service.

🇺🇸🇩🇰 12.4 miles. 1,300+ service members. One historic ruck.

More than 1,300 service members from the Active Duty, National Guard and Reserve components stepped off for the first Danish Flyver Ruck March conducted in the United States.

The 12.4-mile march put participants’ endurance and physical readiness to the test while strengthening camaraderie and building morale across the force. 💪🎒

Those who crossed the finish line earned the Danish Flyver Medal — newly authorized for wear on U.S. military uniforms.

Congratulations to all the Dogface Soldiers and fellow service members who accepted the challenge and earned their medal! 🐶🇺🇸🇩🇰

🐾 A Dogface Soldier in every sense of the word.🇺🇸

In honor of National Dog Day, we’re remembering Chips, one of the most decorated military working dogs of World War II.

Chips served with the 3rd Infantry Division, deploying to North Africa, Sicily, France and Germany. During the invasion of Sicily in 1943, Chips broke away from his handler and charged an enemy machine-gun position, helping force the Soldiers inside to surrender.

His courage under fire made him a legend and forever connected his story to the legacy of the Dogface Soldiers.

Today, we salute Chips and all the military working dogs who have served alongside our Soldiers. 🐕‍🦺🫡
