[edit] Divisional insigna

Should it not be a Black Cat? The 56th was called the "Black Cat" division throughout the Sicily and Italy campaigns in WW2 —Preceding unsigned comment added by 58.10.80.74 (talk) 17:45, 8 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Merge

This should probably be merged with British 56th (1/1st London) Division. In all liklihood, that article should be merged into this one, but I'm open to other opinions. Thoughts, anyone? Carom 20:26, 23 December 2006 (UTC)

There are many units missing as the 56th wasn't just formed of the infantry. I will hopfully collate all the units and add them. If the articles are merged as suggested above the units the formed the 56th in both wars would have to be dated from date of attachment to date of detachment. I am currently reading my Granddads diaries from that period and any useful information that I get I will hopfully find a place to add 80.47.71.164 00:30, 2 January 2007 (UTC)
