    Default Armored Infantry

    During World War II and for some years afterward we had armored infantry battalions in many of our armored divisions. Their main combat vehicle was the half-track. The term armored infantry isn't one that de Czege invented.

    Correct- I merely meant that I was using the term in the way the Was de Czege defined it. The term was used before that.

    And I believe armored infantry WERE the infantry in armored divisions- not in many of them.
