This tribute to the men of the 202nd Field Artillery Battalion, United States Army, World War II, is a collaborative effort between Mark Mudge and Framing History. Mark's Father, T/5 (CPL) David L. Mudge, Jr. was a member of the Instrument and Survey Section of the 202nd's Headquarters Battery. He also was the jeep driver for Captain Harold E. Brown, the S-2 (Intelligence Officer) of the 202nd. Harold is the subject of the book Howitzers, Grasshoppers and the Holy Right Hand, published by Framing History. After retiring from careers in construction and law enforcement, Mark has employed his genealogical and research skills to uncover much of the battalion history that is contained herein. Our hope is that by providing a resource for the 202nd Field Artillery Battalion, we may help surviving veterans and family members learn about, as well as contribute to, a web-based history of the battalion. Already we have been in touch with six 202nd veterans, and over a dozen “Deuce-O-Deuce” families. We hope many more will contact us as time goes by.
There are two published works pertaining to the history of the 202nd Field Artillery Battalion in World War II. The unit’s commanding officer, LTC Tom Lewis, published “A Brief History of Deuce-O-Deuce” and distributed it to the men who were under his command during the war. Framing History published “Howitzers, Grasshoppers, and the Holy Right Hand” in 2008. This book is based on the recollections of the Deuce’s S-2 (Intelligence Officer), CPT Harold Brown. These two books are the sources for the following information on the 202nd F.A. Bn.
In early 1942, the 189th Field Artillery Regiment was attached to the 45th Infantry Division. Due to the wave of reorganization that swept throughout the United States Army at that time, the 2nd Battalion of the 189th was detached from the rest of the regiment. Re-designated the 202nd Field Artillery Battalion, the Deuce became a stand-alone unit, assigned to provide fire support at the Corps level. The battalion would be attached to armies or divisions as need dictated.
Comprised of over 500 GI’s, the Deuce-O-Deuce was outfitted with twelve 155mm howitzers, divided among three batteries. Time was spent at
On Christmas Day 1943, the Deuce received a long-awaited gift from the Army command: they were alerted to prepare for overseas shipment. The men packed up their equipment and personal effects, and shortly after ringing-in 1944, the GI’s boarded a train for the East Coast. (For detail of the trip across the

Joining the parade of vessels moving to and from the invasion beaches, the Deuce’s LSTs waited for their turn to unload. Permission to disembark came on the afternoon of 2 July 1944, and after a short ride through the
So began what would become ten months of combat for the GI’s of the Deuce. Unlike many other artillery units, the 202nd would remain in near-continuous action until the end of hostilities. From the field outside of Vindefontaine, the battalion’s 155’s would bark their loud report over the hedgerows of

At 0100 on March 15, 1945, the howitzers of the 202nd Field Artillery Battalion unleashed the first of what was to be a one-day record of 1,819 rounds fired at enemy targets. The famed U.S. 3rd Infantry Division, the “Rock of the Marne,” was preparing to jump-off and attack the German lines, to commence at last the spring offensive that all hoped would bring about an end to hostilities on the European continent.
Ten days later the GI’s of the Deuce were on the bank of the
After a fierce battle,
During the final days of the war in Europe, as enemy resistance disintegrated and German soldiers surrendered by the thousands, some men of the Deuce paid a visit to Hitler’s house in nearby Berchtesgaden, returning to their comrades with liberated bottles of the now-dead Fϋhrer’s booze. Other 202nd GI’s were sent out on a mission to the nearby town of

We are forever grateful.

  Front and back covers of the unit history that the Deuce's CO, LTC Tom Lewis distributed to his men after the war. 202nd Field Artillery Battalion Roster of Men Serving in the ETO during World War II
The Deuce-O-Deuce was composed of men from about 32 of the 48 states and of various ethnic backgrounds. Approximately 33% of the personnel were from
The diverse ethnic backgrounds included Serbian, German, Swedish, Russian, Irish, Czech, Italian, Finnish, Yugoslavian, Polish, Native American, Greek, Syrian and Danish.
At least 74% of the men in the 202nd enlisted in the Army. That is the number confirmed by a search of the Electronic Army Serial Number Merged File held by the National Archives and Records Administration. The actual percentage is probably higher since all of the men’s serial numbers were not known to the researcher.
The Battalion had an authorized strength of 515 men as set forth in the War Department’s Table of Organization and Equipment for a Field Artillery Battalion, Motorized, 155-MM Howitzer, Tractor Drawn.
The following 602 men served in the Deuce-O-Deuce at some time during the War.
