    Soldiers newly assigned to the 3rd Infantry Division, Fort Stewart and Hunter Army Airfield, and representatives from their respective brigades stand in formation during a patching ceremony at Cashe Garden on Fort Stewart, Georgia, April 19, 2022. During the ceremony, Soldiers received the Division patch, which represents the history of the Marne Division: the three white stripes are symbolic of the three major operations in which the division participated during World War I, the Battle of the Marne River, the Meuse-Argonne Offensive and the St. Mihiel Offensive, and the blue symbolizes the loyalty of those who placed their lives on the altar of self-sacrifice in defense of the American ideals of liberty and democracy.
