Determined to make the event affordable for all soldiers, it’s ask- ing businesses, organizations and individuals to sponsor the event. All sponsorship or donations are tax deductible. The Society exists to honor fallen soldiers, to support division and family members, and to perpetuate a social network of “Dogface” soldiers, past and present. It provides opportunities and facilitates uniting past, present and future members of the 3rd Infantry Division, U. S. Army, in a national program dedicated to the preservation and maintenance of the division’s traditions andhistory. Membership is open to current soldiers, veterans with honorable service in the 38rd Infantry Division, and those who were mem- bers of supporting or attached units. In addition, spouses, parents, children, grandchildren, siblings of any personeligible for regular membership, and any person with a special interest in or an affinity for the 3rd Infantry Division can be an associate member. Soldiers often find the bonds created while serving with their comrades can become as important to them as family and are glad they’ve kept up with those they served beside.
