You need to be more specific about whether you're referring to the 7th Infantry Division, or the 7th Infantry Regiment before this question can be answered.
South Korea
My father was injured near Soun-ni, Korea, on 15 October 1951. He was in Company F, 19th Infantry Regiment, 24th Infantry Division.
In 1950, the 1st Cavalry, 1st Marine, 2nd, 3rd, 7th, 24th, 25th Infantry Divisions deployed to Korea In 1952, the 1st Cavalry and 24th Infantry Divisions returned to Japan and were replaced by the 40th and 45th Infantry Divisions, both National Guard By 1954, all had returned to the US except the 7th Infantry Division, which coverted the Chorwon Valley approach to Seoul. The 24th Infantry Division returned from Japan that year and was stationed in the Munsan-ni Corridor In 1957, the 1st Cavalry Division replaced the 24th Infantry Division. In 1965, the 2nd Infantry Division replaced the 1st Cavalry Division. In 1971, the 7th Infantry Division was inactivated, leaving only the 2nd Infantry Division in place. It remains there to this day, although only its 1st Brigade Combat Team remains there and the rest of the division is at Ft Lewis Karl Lowe I'd just like to know how many divisions are currently in south Korea at this present time?
NO! The regular Infantry soldiers from 40th Division, 185th Infantry,E Company were given M.P.Helmets, M.P. Arm Bands and 45 caliber revolvers and they worked with Taegu,Korea Police. That was on Sept. 8 or 15 of 1945 as an advance occupation force.
Republic of Korea Army Infantry School was created in 1949.
In 1951 the 31st was at Ft. Jackson, S.C. As a New York " draftee", we (from all over the US)were sent for Infantry training with the 31st. We had the DD patch on shoulders, and many wore the confederate flag pin on shoulders. Because of the problem of an all white division to go overseas to war, the rumor had it that the Division would not be allowed to go to Korea. Many were sent to the Indiana Division, and then many went overseas. I did end up in Korea with the 45th Infantry Division ( Thunderbird) from Oklahona. I hope this answers some quesions. Officialy I do not know when colrs were retired.
The United States Army division located in the Republic of Korea is the 2nd Infantry Division. Its headquarters is based in Camp Humphreys, which is located in Pyeongtaek, South Korea. The division plays a crucial role in maintaining security on the Korean Peninsula.

The 2nd Ranger Infantry Company (Airborne) was the last all-black unit activated by the U.S. Army (October 6, 1950), as well as the first Army Ranger unit to parachute into combat (March 23, 1951 at Munsan-ni in Korea). The original unit was designated the 4th Ranger Infantry Company (Airborne) and was later redesignated the 2nd before they deployed. The 2nd Ranger Company was assigned to the 32nd Regimental Combat Team (RCT), 7th Infantry Division (8th U.S. Army Command) and later attached to the 187th Regimental Combat Team (Airborne) in Korea. They fought in 4 major campaigns and served 205 consecutive days in combat.
Korea University Division of International Studies was created in 2002.
