About 65th Infantry Division
The 65th Infantry Division—nicknamed the "Battle-axe"—was an infantry division of the United States Army that served in World War II. Its shoulder patch is a white halberd on a blue shield. The entire length of Pennsylvania Route 65 is named the 65th Infantry Division Memorial Highway in its honor.
