Thanks for the ping HiJinx!
I never did understand why they moved a Mountain Division to New York. Anyone wanna bet "pork-barrel", which Senators do you think have more pull, New York or Colorado?

The 10th hasn't been a 'mountain' division since just after WWII, and didn't carry the Mountain tab from then until deactivation in 1958 at Ft. Benning.
The 10th Mountain Division (Light Infantry) was reactivated in 1985 at Fort Drum.
'Mountain' in name only.
