Soviet 24th "Iron" Rifle Division

[Hardradi]

@56ajax how about giving this unit some love and giving it the title Iron?

This title carries over to all its historical reformations throughout the war. Similar to say the titles given to the 7th Estonian and 249th Estonian.

"This division, one of the oldest in the Soviet army, was formed from partisan units in summer 1918. It was awarded the Order of the Combat Red Banner and named ‘Iron’ for the seizure of Simbirsk during the Civil War."

Hi,

I have written only some of the Wikis entries, not the 24th, and have no control over the naming of units. I do agree that 'Iron' was used throughout its career.

Also note that the Wiki is missing some entries and will remain so until personnel are available to fix some technical issues. This is considered low priority.
