Postwar
The Division was reformed as a National Guard formation after the war, and from 1954 to 1967 was designated the 27th Armored Division. The division was reorganized as a brigade of the 50th Armored Division in 1967–68. The 27th Brigade of the New York ARNG carries on the lineage and history of the Division. In 1986, the SSI of the unit was amended for use by the 27th Infantry Brigade (later, 27th Infantry Brigade Combat Team).
In 1985, the 27th Brigade was assigned to be a roundout brigade to the 10th Mountain Division, which was assigned to the newly expanded base at Ft Drum NY.

Famous quotes containing the word postwar:
“Fashions change, and with the new psychoanalytical perspective of the postwar period [WWII], child rearing became enshrined as the special responsibility of mothers ... any shortcoming in adult life was now seen as rooted in the failure of mothering during childhood.”
—Sylvia Ann Hewitt (20th century)
