The attitude of white combat troops towards the 54th Massachusetts Regiment, an all-Black unit during the Civil War, shifted significantly over time. Initially met with skepticism and prejudice, many white soldiers doubted the capabilities of Black troops. However, after witnessing their bravery and effectiveness in battle, particularly during the assault on Fort Wagner, attitudes began to change, leading to increased respect and recognition of their contributions. This shift reflected a broader change in perceptions of African Americans' roles in the military and society.
The 442nd Regimental Combat Team was responsible for fighting in Europe and was composed mostly of Japanese-American volunteers . The 442nd is considered to be the most decorated infantry regiment in the history of the United States Army .
On paper, an infantry regiment consisted of 10 Companies with 100 men in each for a total of 1000 men. This was a typical size of Union regiments when they were first formed and mustered into service. The Confederate regiments were not quite that size. Many didn't get to be that size as they were rushed into service. After the regiment went off to war, they began to lose men in combat. The regiment was trimmed down even smaller. It was common for a Confederate infantry company to be 40 men. It was common for Confederate regiments to be as small as 250 men during the last 2 years of the war. When the regiment experienced high loss of soldiers and officers, the regiment would be merged or "consolidated" with another regiment. Sometimes it was difficult to know this as they continued to be organized along their old regiment. Thus the 29th Mississippi Regiment and the 30th Mississippi Regiment in General Walthall's Brigade were merged into the 29th/30th Mississippi Regiment soon after the Battle of Missionary Ridge.
The famous regiment brought to the English from the French is the "Grenadier Guards." Established in the early 18th century, this regiment was inspired by the French Grenadiers, elite soldiers known for their distinctive tall bearskin hats and exceptional combat skills. The Grenadier Guards have since become one of the most recognized regiments in the British Army, known for their ceremonial duties and historical significance.
During World War II, Major A. Ruth A. K. W. H. W. R. (commonly known as "Ruth") was a notable female pilot who flew in a male combat regiment. She was part of the Women's Airforce Service Pilots (WASP) program, which allowed women to take on various flying roles. WASP pilots flew military aircraft and tested planes, although they were not officially considered part of combat operations. Their contributions were significant in supporting the war effort and paving the way for future female pilots.
