The 2nd Division was the most combat-ready division stationed in the continental United States during most of the interwar period, given that the majority of the unit was stationed at a single post and the division headquarters staff was not allowed to atrophy like those of the 1st or 3rd Divisions, the other two nominally active stateside Regular Army divisions. </p><p>During the early post-World War I period, the division’s time was spent rebuilding and training on a limited scale. The slow pace left time for the division to assist Hollywood in making movies about the Army. Division units participated in <a href="/wiki/Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer" title="Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer">Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer</a>’s movie <i><a href="/wiki/The_Big_Parade" title="The Big Parade">The Big Parade</a></i> in May and June 1925 and in <i><a href="/wiki/Wings_(1927_film)" title="Wings (1927 film)">Wings</a></i> in April 1926. By 1926, however, maneuver training of divisional units was becoming more frequent, leaving little time for movies. The maneuvers generally took place in May, before the division’s units assisted the training of <a href="/wiki/United_States_Army_Reserve" title="United States Army Reserve">Organized Reserve</a> units, <a href="/wiki/Citizens_Military_Training_Camps" class="mw-redirect" title="Citizens Military Training Camps">Citizens Military Training Camps</a> (CMTC), and ROTC cadets during the summer. Typically, the division would deploy to <a href="/wiki/Camp_Bullis" title="Camp Bullis">Camp Bullis</a>, Texas, or areas west of San Antonio, and perform field training, usually at company and battalion level. The division deployment would culminate in brigade-versus-brigade maneuvers near the end of the field training period. </p><p>After transfer of the 4th Infantry Brigade to <a href="/wiki/Fort_D._A._Russell_(Wyoming)" title="Fort D. A. Russell (Wyoming)">Fort D.A. Russell</a>, <a href="/wiki/Wyoming" title="Wyoming">Wyoming</a> (later renamed <a href="/wiki/Francis_E._Warren_Air_Force_Base" title="Francis E. Warren Air Force Base">Fort Francis E.

Once the division maneuvers were complete, the division shifted to training the Reserve components. The 3rd Infantry Brigade usually trained Reserve officers of the <a href="/wiki/90th_Infantry_Division_(United_States)" title="90th Infantry Division (United States)">90th Division</a>, Infantry CMTC, and ROTC cadets. Units of the 2nd Field Artillery Brigade trained the artillery officers of the 90th Division, the XVIII Corps, and several General Headquarters Reserve (GHQR) artillery units in the Eighth Corps Area. After transferring to Fort Francis E. Warren, the 4th Infantry Brigade conducted their maneuver training at the Pole Mountain Military Reservation where they also trained their affiliate Reserve units of the <a href="/wiki/104th_Infantry_Division_(United_States)" title="104th Infantry Division (United States)">104th Division</a>. In 1936, the division participated in the Third Army <a href="/wiki/Military_exercise" title="Military exercise">command post exercise</a> (CPX) at Camp Bullis to prepare army, corps, and division staffs for future large-scale army maneuvers. The next major training event for the division came in September 1937 when it participated in the Provisional Infantry Division (PID) tests at Camp Bullis. The “Indianhead” Division was temporarily reorganized with three regiments to test the concept of the “triangular” division. The exercise was apparently very successful as further tests were called for after analysis of the results by Army planners. The following year, units of the Eighth Corps Area including the 2nd Division were assembled at Camp Bullis for the Third Army maneuvers. In January 1939, the division was reorganized for the second time as a triangular division, this time for the Provisional 2nd Division (P2D) tests. These tests finalized the decision to adopt the new triangular organization for Regular Army divisions. As a result, in October 1939, the division’s 4th Infantry Brigade was disbanded, the 1st and 20th Infantry Regiments were relieved from assignment, and the 38th Infantry Regiment was assigned to the division to make its transition to the triangular concept complete. </p><p>In May 1940, the “Indianhead” Division deployed to the vicinity of <a href="/w/index.php?title=Horton,_Texas&amp;action=edit&amp;redlink=1" class="new" title="Horton, Texas (page does not exist)">Horton, Texas</a>, to train under the new organization in preparation for the next Third Army maneuver. The 1940 Third Army maneuvers were held in west-central <a href="/wiki/Louisiana" title="Louisiana">Louisiana</a> in August 1940 and were primarily performed with the Regular Army and National Guard divisions stationed in the Fourth and Eighth Corps Areas. After the exercises in Louisiana, the “Indianhead” Division returned to Fort Sam Houston. The following June, the division moved to <a href="/wiki/Brownwood,_Texas" title="Brownwood, Texas">Brownwood, Texas</a>, to participate in the VIII Corps maneuver held there that month.

November 2004, the 3rd Stryker Brigade Combat Team deployed from Fort Lewis, Washington in support of Operation Iraqi Freedom. In the sands of Iraq the 3rd Brigade Stryker Brigade Combat Team proved the value of the Stryker brigade concept in combat and logistics operations.<sup id="cite_ref-50" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-50"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>50<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p><p>During the late spring of 2004, many of the soldiers of the 2nd Infantry Division's 2d Brigade Combat Team were given notice that they were about to be ordered to further deployment, with duty in Iraq. Units involved in this call-up included: <a href="/wiki/503d_Infantry_Regiment_(United_States)" class="mw-redirect" title="503d Infantry Regiment (United States)">1st Battalion, 503rd Infantry Regiment</a>; 1st Battalion, <a href="/wiki/506th_Infantry_Regiment_(United_States)" title="506th Infantry Regiment (United States)">506th Infantry Regiment</a> (Air Assault); 2d Battalion, 17th Field Artillery Regiment; 1st Battalion, <a href="/wiki/9th_Infantry_Regiment_(United_States)" title="9th Infantry Regiment (United States)">9th Infantry Regiment</a> (Mechanized); <a href="/wiki/44th_Engineer_Battalion" class="mw-redirect" title="44th Engineer Battalion">44th Engineer Battalion</a>; 2nd Forward Support Battalion; Company A, 102nd Military Intelligence Battalion; Company B, <a href="/wiki/122d_Signal_Battalion" title="122d Signal Battalion">122d Signal Battalion</a>, elements of the 2d Battalion, 72nd Armor Regiment, a team from the 509th Personnel Services Battalion, and B Battery, 5th Battalion <a href="/wiki/5th_Air_Defense_Artillery_Regiment" title="5th Air Defense Artillery Regiment">5th Air Defense Artillery Regiment</a> (Deployed as a combination of mechanized infantry and light infantry with two platoons of Bradley Fighting Vehicles and 1 platoon of armored HMMWVs). As a result of the short notice, extensive training was conducted by the brigade as they switched from a focus of the foreign defense of South Korea to the offensive operations that were going to be needed in Iraq. Furthermore, time was given for the majority of the soldiers to enjoy ten days of leave. This was vital: many of the soldiers had been in South Korea for a year or more with only two weeks or less time in the United States during their stay of duty. More, they were about to depart on a deployment scheduled to last at least another year. Finally, in August 2004, the brigade deployed to Iraq. </p><p>Upon landing in country, the 2d BCT was given strategic command to much of the sparsely populated area south and west of Fallujah. Their mission, however, changed when the major strategic actions began to take place within the city proper. At this time, the brigade combat team was refocused and given control of the eastern half of the volatile city of Ar-Ramadi. Within a few weeks of taking over operational control from the previous units, 2nd Brigade began suffering casualties from violent activity. Many of the units had to move to new camps in support of this new mission. The primary focus of the 2d BCT for much of their deployment was the struggle to gain local support and to minimize casualties. </p><p>The brigade was spread out amongst many camps. To the west of the city of Ar-Ramadi sat the camp of Junction City. 2ID units stationed there included: HQ 2d BCT, 2nd ID; 2–17th Field Artillery; 1–9th Infantry; 44th Engineer Battalion; Company A, 102d Military Intelligence Battalion; Company B, <a href="/wiki/122d_Signal_Battalion" title="122d Signal Battalion">122d Signal Battalion</a>, and Company C (Medical), 2d Forward Support Battalion. To the eastern end of the city sat a much more austere camp, known as the Combat Outpost. This was home to the 1-503d Infantry Regiment. East of them but outside of the city proper itself was the town of Habbiniya and the 1–506th Infantry Regiment. Adjacent to this camp was the logistically important camp of Al-Taqaddum, where the 2d Forward Support Battalion was stationed. </p><p>For this mission, the brigade fell under the direct command not of the 2d Infantry Division, but rather under a Marine division. For the first six months while in <a href="/wiki/Ramadi" title="Ramadi">Ramadi</a>, the BCT fell under the <a href="/wiki/1st_Marine_Division_(United_States)" class="mw-redirect" title="1st Marine Division (United States)">1st Marine Division</a>.

While the voting was accomplished and little to no violence was seen within the city, few voters participated (estimated to be in the 700 person range for the eastern half of the city, according to 2nd BCT officials). </p><p>The 2d BCT also built several new camps within the city. For security reasons, many are left unverified, however ones that can be confirmed include Camps Trotter and Corregidor built to ease the burden on the accommodations at Combat Outpost. </p><p>In July 2005, the brigade began to get relieved by units of the Army National Guard, as well as the 3d Infantry Division of the Regular Army. Six months into the deployment, the units of the 2d BCT were given word that they would not be returning to South Korea but, rather, to <a href="/wiki/Fort_Carson,_Colorado" class="mw-redirect" title="Fort Carson, Colorado">Fort Carson</a>, Colorado in an effort to restructure the Army and house more soldiers on American soil. </p><p>From June 2006 to September 2007, the 3rd Stryker Brigade Combat Team deployed from Fort Lewis, Washington in support of Operation Iraqi Freedom. During the 3rd Stryker Brigade's second deployment to Operation Iraqi Freedom their mission was to assist the Iraqi security forces with counter-insurgency operations in the Ninewa Province. 46 soldiers from the brigade were killed during the deployment. </p><p>On 1 June 2006 at Fort Lewis, Washington the 4th Brigade, 2d Infantry Division was formed. From April 2007 to July 2008 the 4th Stryker Brigade Combat Team was deployed in as part of the surge to regain control of the situation in Iraq.
