Excerpt from The Story of the Rainbow Division
When the history of the recent world war has been analyzed, it will be found that the psychological forces at work have been the most powerful of all those called into exercise to save the world for democracy.
The fact that the "Rainbow" Division was composed of elements of the National Guard selected from a majority of the states of the Union should have constituted an element of weakness; should have made for lack of cohesion. If the idea of constituting a division in this way was a happy thought, the selection of the name "Rainbow" for this composite organization was an inspiration. I consider that the name in itself was perhaps the strongest asset the Division had.
