I'm not sure if the 3rd should be included in this list as "The title 3rd Indian division was only given in order to deceive the Japanese." [1] Philip Baird Shearer 20:29, 15 Oct 2004 (UTC)
- The source you are quoting is neither authoritative nor correct. While the structure of the formation was not that of an ordinary division, for organizational purposes it was an Indian Army division which consisted of a set of brigades and divisional troops.
[edit] Names
Is it correct to list these, and other non-British British Army divisions, as [Country-an] NNth [Type] Division? Seems to me I usually see them as NNth [Country-an] Division. Maybe only the few non-infantry units need something different? —wwoods 02:45, 26 Mar 2005 (UTC)
- When reference is made to the units before the independence of India, it should be 1st Indian Division. If made after independence, it should be Indian 1st Division. Because this page is a list of WWII indian divisions, it should use the former descriptive syntax.
