This #Halloween, we’re taking a look at a different kind of ghost story — the Ghost Army.

This World War II unit was all trick, no treat for enemy forces. ⤵️

1/6 23rd Headquarters, Special Troops Soldiers
From June 1944 to March 1945, the top-secret 23rd Headquarters, Special Troops used inflatable tanks, fake radio transmissions and sound effects to deceive the enemy and protect Allied troops.​

Rest in peace, Soldier. You led, 'The Good Life."

#TonyBennett, who died today at age 96, was a #USArmy veteran. We salute his service to the Nation and his iconic career as a singer.

After completing basic training at Fort Dix, New Jersey and Fort Robinson, Nebraska, Bennett served with the 63rd Infantry Division and went to Europe in March 1945.
With the 63rd Infantry Division, Bennett fought in France and Germany, quickly rising to the rank of corporal based on his experience with close combat fighting.

We continue The Story of Old Abe.

Many newspapers and Veterans groups wondered aloud "what would become of this famous, flesh and blood war relic?"
Upon his death, "Old Abe" was preserved and exhibited in the Capitol building's Grand Army of the Republic Memorial Hall until a fire destroyed the display in 1904.

Sadly, only a few of his feathers survived, carefully preserved by the Wisconsin Veterans' Museum in Madison.
Today, large sculptures of "Old Abe" stand atop the Wisconsin monument at Vicksburg, Miss., and atop the entrance to old Camp Randall, now the main entrance to the University of Wisconsin's football stadium.

We have quite the story to tell on #NationalBirdDay.

We present The Story of Old Abe.

The symbol of the Screaming Eagles, @101stAASLTDIV
The Screaming Eagle insignia of the @101stAASLTDIV is perhaps the most recognized and famous shoulder sleeve insignia in the United States Army.
However the history and symbolism of the patch is often forgotten. The eagle on your shoulder is not just any American Bald Eagle, but instead, it commemorates the most famous animal mascot that ever served in the United States Army.

Even small victories have big effects.

Today we look back at The Battle of Princeton

New Jersey | Jan 3, 1777
After crossing the Delaware on December 25, 1776, Gen. George Washington embarked on a ten day campaign, known as the “10 Crucial Days," that would change the course of the war, culminating at the Battle of Princeton.
By noon on Dec. 30, Col. John Cadwalader, in command of a brigade of Philadelphia Associators stationed 15 miles south of Princeton, received valuable intelligence from an unidentified informant who'd been detained the night before by British troops and managed to escape.

We know the Holidays are in full swing, but let's take a moment for some #ArmyHistory.

Today, we look at #TheBattleofTrenton.

New Jersey | Dec 26, 1776
In late 1776, morale in the Continental Army was at a low after losses at the Battle of White Plains in October and at Forts Washington and Lee in November.

Chased by the British, General George Washington retreated across New Jersey and into Pennsylvania.

#ArmyHistory
On the night of Christmas, December 25, 1776, General Washington implemented an audacious plan that would improve the fortunes of the American forces.
