Four ivy leaves arranged in a cross pattern within a diamond

The 4th Infantry Division formed on November 17, 1917, shortly after America entered World War I. Based on its designation (the Roman numeral IV), its first commanding general adopted an insignia of four green leaves and it became known as the “Ivy” division. The division’s motto is “Steadfast and Loyal”. The “Ivy Memorial” is based on the division’s insignia. The ivy that grows at its base is planted in soil gathered from battlegrounds where its members fought.
