The 163rd Infantry was a part of the 41st Division, which was originally the National Guard from the states of Washington, Oregon, Idaho and Montana. Called up for service, the 41st Division was formed and trained at Camp Greene, in Charlotte, North Carolina. Upon reaching France in February, 1918, the Division received a great disappointment when its members learned that it was to be broken up to provide replacements for other divisions. Much of the infantry strength of the 41st Division went to the 1st, 2nd, 32nd and 42nd Divisions. The 41st Division and its subunits, including the 163rd Infantry, saw no action in WWI as intact units.
