In 2005, the 2nd Brigade, 2nd Infantry Division began transformation to the US Army's new modular force structure. As a result many of its units were reflagged. Also, units previously held at division level were made organic to the unit, a key element of the modular transformation. 1st Battalion, 503rd Infantry was reflagged as the 1st Battalion, 9th Infantry. The 1st Battalion, 9th Infantry was reflagged as the 3rd Squadron, 61st Cavalry. 1st Battalion, 506th Infantry was reflagged as the 2nd Battalion, 12th Infantry. The 2nd Battalion, 17th Field Artillery and 2nd Forward Support Battalion (redesignated 2nd Brigade Support Battalion) were also made organic to the new Brigade Combat Team.

Where was the 208 field artillery battalion in world war 2?
I checked the artillery assigned to the Infantry Divisions and the 208 Field Artillery Battalion was NOT part of an infantry division. This means they were either a separate battalion assigned to an Army or a Corps. I did find reference to the 208 Field Artillery Group. An artillery regiment or a group were a higher level of command for several battalions. It was more of an administrative organization. However, some of these units were re-organized and re-identified from a regiment to a Battalion.
