An additional resource is the US Army Orders of Battle 1919-1945 Vol. 1 (Infantry) and Vol. 2 Cavalry & artillery. Be careful with these. They give the impression that some of the formation were in existence in '36 and on paper they were but most were not manned or were cadre at best.

No worries! I'm glad that you brought this up to me, that way I can make adjustments. I'll take a look at the link you posted, and make some changes.

I'm not trying to be cruel or argumentative or dis your effort but the OOB posted is not correct for 1936 (i did not do '39). The NG divs were 4 rgt formations because they kept their WWI OOB until reformed in '42. The reserve divs were that reserve that were nothing but paper as they had no bodies. The regular divs after the third were not raised until late '39 into '41. Try http://www.niehorster.org The US only starts in '41 but its a good starting place and gives the date raised. In '36 the org given for the US is an indication of how unprepared the US was and is fairly accurate..
