Talk:Special Troops Battalion, 10th Mountain Division

How far did they get?
The article says "were to be sent to the Pacific theater" (as in, they were not sent), but then goes on to say "The division returned to the US" as if they did go somewhere after all. I presume this means they boarded ships to go to Japan, but returned halfway through? Jpatokal (talk) 13:20, 21 July 2009 (UTC)
 * That's correct. They boarded ships in Italy, bound for Japan but were rerouted back to the US. — Ed! (talk) 13:41, 21 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Which units were boarded? My father was in the 87th Regt., & while he always told me his division would have been part of Operation Olympic had Japan not surrendered, my impression was that as a soldier of the 10th Mountain he never got any closer to Japan than Fort Lewis, south of Seattle, where he was demobilized! -- llywrch (talk) 16:56, 21 July 2009 (UTC)
 * As far as I undersand the sources, the division's elements did not get very far—in fact, one source even states that the war ended literally as they were loading on to the ships in Italy. — Ed! (talk) 18:35, 21 July 2009 (UTC)
