Try going to WWW.askjeeves.com Type in 251st Infantry. This will give hits to all the web sites that contain any information on the 251th. I did this for The USS Randolph and found a couple of people who knew my Grandfather during the war and a few people who didn't but helped me alot with my research. I checked the organizations of the Infantry Divisions that were formed in WW2 and the 251st Infantry Regiment was not in any of these divisions. If a regiment was not part of a division, then it was an independent unit and possible a training unit in the US. I checked the following reference for units that served in WW2 and Korean War and it does NOT list a unit by that name/identity. Dept of Army Pamphlet 672-1 "Unit Citiation and Campaign Participation Credit Register". From some "hits" on the internet, the 251st Infantry Regiment may have existed in World War 1 but I saw nothing but more inquiries.
