William Pease was drafted by the US Army in the spring of l944. He left for induction on the 26th of June l944 from a small town in central Idaho, Shoshone. His parents moved to Wyoming after his induction, so he would be listed as a KIA from the state of WY rather than Idaho. I believe he was KIA in the spring of 45. He was probably 18 years old when he lost his life. There must be a list of US Army soldiers from the State of Wyoming who were killed in action in WW 2.

The term "combat troops" is confusing to civilians (and some military personnel too) because the term has been abused for so long. All US Army personnel are combat troops with specialized branches that specialize into specific combat jobs, formerly (which is why they used to go to BOOT CAMP; formerly known as Basic Combat Infantryman's Training) known as the combat arms branch: Armor (tanks), Artillery (cannons), and the Infantry (formerly fighting men/foot soldiers). During the late 1990 the US Army "may" have added other branches to that specialized combat arms system. Rumor control stated that the aviation branch was added to the combat arms system. The combat arms of the US Army are the conventional fighting branches of the US Army (or was during the Viet War days). US Combat troops, along with specialized troops were deployed to SOUTH Vietnam in 1955. CONVENTIONAL forces (those combat arms men previously discussed above were deployed in 1965).

The Combat Action Badge (CAB) is specific to the U.S. Army and is awarded to soldiers who have actively engaged or been engaged by enemy forces in combat. If you switch from the Army to the Air Force, you will not be authorized to wear the CAB unless you have previously earned it during your time in the Army. The Air Force has its own combat-related awards and badges, such as the Air Force Combat Action Medal (CAM).
Combat
Cooks like all people in the Australian Army are trained in basic combat. They are unlikely to go into combat as it is not their job function.
