Under the Vietnam War summary, it might be more readable to rewrite it, including a listing of the various operations (which avoid linking to the Rolling Stones). That listing would provide useful additions to the Vietnam War category of lists of operations.--Buckboard 10:21, 25 March 2006 (UTC)
While the 1st Brigade page does need some work to fill in gaps between WWII & ODS, neither brigade's page should be merged with this one. This page is already getting long as it is. Marktaff 06:14, 18 April 2006 (UTC)
for you lovers of Big Red One they are starting a new brigade in Ft Hood part of the 3rd brigade. it will be up and running by april 07 and deployable april 08
Both brigades have a history that preceeds that of the 1st Infantry Division. SSG Cornelius Seon (Retired) 05:19, 15 May 2006 (UTC)
Should we have "Big red one" redirect here?
It seems to me that the attached supporting units, like the two tank batalions, should be added given the role they played in the divisional plan -- Mrg3105 11:10, 21 December 2006 (UTC)
With the modularization of the Army, the current structures and unit affiliations are no longer correct. For instance, 1st Sqdn, 4th Cavalry, now belongs to a Brigade at Ft. Riley, it is not a Separate. I can correct some of the incorrect information, but most of it will be difficult, since even published Army campaign plans for modularization are not going into effect as they had been planned. I guess that is the beauty of transforming and fighting a war simultaneously.— Andrew 17:13, 10 February 2007 (UTC)
Why is there a separate section for the motto in the article when the exact same information is already conveyed in the unit infobox? Quite repetative, wouldn't you agree? -- ScreaminEagle 17:39, 26 April 2007 (UTC)
I did that due to a suggestion on the a-class review (failed) -- Pupster21 Talk To Me 22:59, 26 April 2007 (UTC)
- Hm. Still seems awfully silly to me. If there were some history put in there about the motto or some other information besides just the motto itself, I could certainly understand its inclusion. But as an exact copy of something almost next to it, definitely superfluous. -- ScreaminEagle 23:19, 26 April 2007 (UTC)
History??? -- Pupster21 Talk To Me 23:21, 26 April 2007 (UTC) Just kidding. hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm. That has a point. I still say keep it. -- Pupster21 Talk To Me 23:21, 26 April 2007 (UTC)

Artilce only cites one source, the rest of the article needs references.
- 3. Broad in coverage?:
Article discusses many key points in its coverage. - 4. Neutral point of view?:
No
WP:NPOV problems.
- 5. Article stability?

- 4th Brigade is a Light Infantry Brigade. 2-26 and 1-28 are light infantry battalions, similar to units from the 10th Mountain. 24.214.28.179 02:03, 4 August 2007 (UTC)
- that is not correct, with the new reorganization of the US-Army the 1st Inf. Div will consist of 4 Armored Brigades without any light infantry units. -- noclador 02:26, 4 August 2007 (UTC)
- Negative, I am a member of 1-4 CAV. 4 IBCT is a light infantry BDE. Additionally 3 IBCT at Ft Hood is light. 2-26, and 1-28 are light infantry battalions. (No bradleys.
The army is going to having three different types of brigades, Heavy (HBCT), Stryker (SBCT), and Infantry (Light)(IBCT). If you look at the units on the Riley web page, its clearly marked 4 IBCT. http://www.riley.army.mil/ . I wouldn't worry about division nomenclature so much, the army has switched to a brigade-centric deployment and capability system, rather than a divisional one.

What is the Wikipedia policy regarding external links whose only purpose seemingly is to draw business to a commercial website, in this case www.combatreels.com? I've no doubt that the DVDs are interesting to many people, but there is no information on that site that isn't carried in the Wikipedia article itself. Seems kind of inappropriate to me. Is it?-- 172.190.116.12 ( talk) 02:01, 28 July 2011 (UTC)
- I agree. If they were actually footage of the division, they might be permissible, but it seems the links are only there to sell merchandise. Wikipedia is not here for that. I've removed them. — Ed! (talk) 20:28, 21 June 2012 (UTC)
The reference link for the Big Red One patch is now out of date. It should be http://www.1stid.org/patch.php. If there are any other questions about the Society's website I can help, as I am the webmaster. Jpflyers929 ( talk) 20:16, 21 June 2012 (UTC)
How can the second possibilty of the origin be a gray piece of cloth when the patch has always been on green? There was an Army prior to the disaster called the ACU. Never saw a gray 1st ID patch prior to that ever, and I collected shoulder sleave insignia for 30 years. Should be removed. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Radar2102 ( talk • contribs) 01:12, 2 May 2013 (UTC)

Why is the 1st ID SSI listed as being obsolete (ceased being used in 2015) and replaced by the golden bordered CSIB, when the current website for the 1stID [1], still uses it? Was there an official change sometime in 2015 that I didn't realize? SamSennett ( talk) 21:12, 16 March 2018 (UTC)
The article says "The original table of organization and equipment (TO&E) included two organic infantry brigades of two infantry regiments each, one engineer battalion; [...]".
The link to "organic" says that organic units are permanent sub-units of a larger unit, and are generally specialized. Well, these are infantry brigades; those are about as unspecialized as they come. And note that the adjective "organic" is attached to the infantry brigades, not to the specialized battallions listed after. So it looks like we mean simply "permanent".
"Organic" appears to be a term of art, otherwise it wouldn't need a wikilink. So can we just replace it with "permanent", since that's evidently what we mean? That would make it easier for a layman to understand, without detracting in any way from the present meaning.
MrDemeanour ( talk) 19:02, 28 January 2023 (UTC)
- The definition of organic is apparently outdated. Organic has been used in the US military to describe units that are part of a larger unit's structure in a semi-permanent sense for some time (at least since before the Vietnam War). Permanent doesn't really work well, as those units can be shifted (or even disappear depending on the organization idea of the month). Intothat darkness 19:46, 28 January 2023 (UTC)

I have read several times that in WWI that had Plan 1919 been carried out that the US 1st Infantry Division was going to be turned in the US 1st Parachute Division and dropped on the city of Metz to capture the bridges when the Allied forces approached the city.

What is the Wikipedia policy regarding external links whose only purpose seemingly is to draw business to a commercial website, in this case www.combatreels.com? I've no doubt that the DVDs are interesting to many people, but there is no information on that site that isn't carried in the Wikipedia article itself. Seems kind of inappropriate to me. Is it?-- 172.190.116.12 ( talk) 02:01, 28 July 2011 (UTC)
- I agree. If they were actually footage of the division, they might be permissible, but it seems the links are only there to sell merchandise. Wikipedia is not here for that. I've removed them. — Ed! (talk) 20:28, 21 June 2012 (UTC)
The reference link for the Big Red One patch is now out of date. It should be http://www.1stid.org/patch.php. If there are any other questions about the Society's website I can help, as I am the webmaster. Jpflyers929 ( talk) 20:16, 21 June 2012 (UTC)
How can the second possibilty of the origin be a gray piece of cloth when the patch has always been on green? There was an Army prior to the disaster called the ACU. Never saw a gray 1st ID patch prior to that ever, and I collected shoulder sleave insignia for 30 years. Should be removed. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Radar2102 ( talk • contribs) 01:12, 2 May 2013 (UTC)

Why is the 1st ID SSI listed as being obsolete (ceased being used in 2015) and replaced by the golden bordered CSIB, when the current website for the 1stID [1], still uses it? Was there an official change sometime in 2015 that I didn't realize? SamSennett ( talk) 21:12, 16 March 2018 (UTC)
The article says "The original table of organization and equipment (TO&E) included two organic infantry brigades of two infantry regiments each, one engineer battalion; [...]".
The link to "organic" says that organic units are permanent sub-units of a larger unit, and are generally specialized. Well, these are infantry brigades; those are about as unspecialized as they come. And note that the adjective "organic" is attached to the infantry brigades, not to the specialized battallions listed after. So it looks like we mean simply "permanent".
"Organic" appears to be a term of art, otherwise it wouldn't need a wikilink. So can we just replace it with "permanent", since that's evidently what we mean? That would make it easier for a layman to understand, without detracting in any way from the present meaning.
MrDemeanour ( talk) 19:02, 28 January 2023 (UTC)
- The definition of organic is apparently outdated. Organic has been used in the US military to describe units that are part of a larger unit's structure in a semi-permanent sense for some time (at least since before the Vietnam War). Permanent doesn't really work well, as those units can be shifted (or even disappear depending on the organization idea of the month). Intothat darkness 19:46, 28 January 2023 (UTC)
