Already after the first experiences of fighting in North Africa at the turn of 1942-1943, the US Army changed the position of the American infantry division. From 1943 onwards, each infantry division had three full-time infantry regiments, in turn composed of three infantry battalions. In addition, the infantry regiment also included other units, for example: an anti-tank company, an artillery company or a staff company. In total, the US Army's infantry regiment numbered approximately 3,100 soldiers. It should also be remembered that the division also included a strong artillery component consisting of four artillery battalions - 3 light and 1 medium, most often armed with 105 and 155 mm howitzers. There was also, among others, an engineering battalion, a repair company, a reconnaissance unit and a Military Police platoon. In total, the US Infantry Division numbered approximately 14,200 people from 1943. It quite clearly dominated the artillery over the German division and had much better and - above all - fully motorized means of transport, which made it a highly mobile tactical formation. It also had much richer "individual" anti-tank weapons in the form of a large number of bazooka launchers, of which there were over 500 in the entire division.

The tradition of using motorcycles in the US Army dates back to World War I, when models such as the Harley-Davidson Model 17F / J or the Indian Powerplus Big Twin were used on a large scale. Also in the next World War, the US Army used motorcycles. One of the most famous and successful is the Harley-Davidson WLA motorcycle, which entered service in 1940 and was used in North-Western Europe. It proved to be highly reliable, technically refined, and had good off-road mobility for a motorcycle of this weight. It is assumed that during the Second World War, approx. 60,000 jobs were created. motorbikes of this type. They were used in the US armed forces for many tasks, including liaison, communication, light transport and - in very rare cases - reconnaissance. They were also used on a large scale by the American Military Police.
