| General Overview of the Association |
| In September 1949 a small group of 63rd Infantry Division veterans met and formed the 63rd Infantry Division Association. The purpose of the association was and still is to perpetuate the memory of our fallen comrades, to preserve the Esprit de Corps of the division and to assist in promoting an everlasting peace. The Association by-laws provided for publication of a periodical for the purpose of collecting and disseminating information of interest to its members. That publication is currently distributed three (3) times each year and is known as the "Blood and Fire". The Association by-laws also provided for the collection, preservation and exhibition of historical documents, books, paintings, war materials and other objects of interest to the association members. In 1984 the association by-laws were changed to add a "Historian". An annual meeting of members, the appointment and election of officers and the appoointment of a "Secretary/Treasurer" were also provided for. The first annual meeting, or reunion as we now refer to it, was held in New York City in June 1950. Reunions have been held every year since.
