3/8 Cav
The AFV ASSOCIATION was formed in 1964 to support the thoughts and research of all those interested in Armored Fighting Vehicles and related topics, such as AFV drawings. The emphasis has always been on sharing information and communicating with other members of similar interests; e.g. German armor, Japanese AFVs, or whatever.

Post subject: 3/8 Cav

I was reading that 3/8 Cav was a 3rd AD armor unit at Gelnhausen and not the divisional cav. My question is did they replace 1/33 Armor or were they an additional battalion?

Mark,

All those 3AD CAV units were former Armor Battalions reflagged. Gelnhausen had 1-33 and 3-33 and became squadrons in 8th CAV IIRC.

Only real CAV unit in the division at that time was our 3-12 at swinging Budingen Smile

Mark

In 1986-87, 3rd AD did a number of unit redesignations.

At Kirchgons, (1st Bde), 2/36 Inf & 3/36 Inf became 3/5 Cav & 5/5 Cav. The units were not true CAV, but remained Mech Inf. The 2 Armor Bns were 2/32 Ar & 4/32 Ar. (4/32 AR was redesignated from 2/5 CAV following a 'COHORT' move from 1st CAV DIV, Ft Hood)

At Gelnhausen, (3rd Bde), 1/33 Ar & 3/33 Ar became 3/8 Cav & 4/8 Cav. Again not true CAV, but Armored Cav.

A side note: 4/8 Cav competed in the 1987 Canadian Army Trophy (CAT) Competition, and recorded the first U.S. 'Win' in the history of the NATO Tank Gunnery Competition.

Oh, BTW....In Dec 1992, 1/67 Ar,(3rd Bde), 1st CAV DIV became 3/8 CAV. I was in C Co 3/8 CAV from 1992-94.

Confused ....? I seemed to have been in or around all of this reflagging, as it happened.


Regards
Don

Somewhere along the line 4/7 Cav moved into Budingen. I read that 1/32 and 3/32 Armor became Cav and went to 101AB Division. I've never figured out why they do this. Confused
