Historical Account: "The Ivy Division" - The 4th Infantry Division is the Army's First Digitized Division. Today, the 4th Infantry Division is the most lethal, modern, and deployable heavy division in the world; it is prepared to conduct full-spectrum combat operations. It is organized with five Brigade-sized elements: three maneuver brigades, a combat aviation brigade, division artillery, and division support command. The Division shares a long and distinguished history that includes combat in three wars. It has earned twenty-one campaign streamers with twenty Ironhorse soldiers receiving the Congressional Medal of Honor.

The 4th Infantry Division nickname, the 'Ivy Division,' comes from the design of its shoulder patch: four green ivy leaves joined at the stem and opening at the four corners. The word 'Ivy' is a play on the roman numeral four, IV. Ivy leaves are symbolic of tenacity and fidelity, the basis of the Division's motto, "Steadfast and Loyal". The unit has a long and distinguished history that includes combat in three wars. Twenty Ivy Division soldiers have been awarded the Congressional Medal of Honor and 21 campaign streamers adorn its colors.

The 4th Infantry Division is leading the United States Army into the 21st century under the banner of Force XXI. They are busy developing and testing state of the art digital communications equipment, night fighting gear, advanced weaponry, and doctrine to prepare the Army for wars in the next century. Recently, the division has adopted the nickname "Iron Horse" to better reflect the power they possess.
