Best Answer

A little more (or more accurate) details needed here. There was a 23rd Infantry Division, more commonly referred to as the Americal Divison...maybe even known as the Oregon Task Force Division. It was stationed at Chu Lai (I Corps=Military Region I). Both Generals Powell and Schartzkoph (Desert Storm fame) were part of that division during the war.

What is the difference in an Amored Infantry Division and an Infantry Division particularly during World War 2?

For WW2: Armored Infantry Divisions were equiped with half-tracks. Regular Infantry Divisions walked (or trucked). During the Vietnam War those Armored Infantry Divisions gave way to the new MECHANIZED INFANTRY DIVISIONS, equipped with M-113 APC/ACAV (Armored Personnel Carriers/Armored Cavalry Assault Vehicles). Only one US Army Mechanized Infantry Division was in Vietnam (and only it's 1st Brigade); the 5th Mechanized Infantry Division (Red Diamond Patch). Regular Infantry Divisions in Vietnam were called "Straight Legs", "Straight" meaning...straight foot soldiering.
