Seeking and sharing information about the 164th Infantry Regiment, Americal Division, WWII, in the Pacific Theater. The 164th landed at Guadalcanal on 13 October 1942, then went on to Bougainville, Leyte, Cebu, and prepared for the invasion of Japan. The Regiment, originally North Dakota Army National Guard, came home in late 1945, and was mobilized again in 1951 for the Korean War.

On 26 Apr 45, elements of the 164th waded ashore not far from Dumaguete, Capitol City of the Negros Oriental islands. If you can be more specific about which battalion you're interested it, we can pinpoint it a bit further. Please email Editor164InfantryNews@hotmail.com

My dad was with the 164th Infantry, later known as the Americal Division. According to his written record the 164th left Leyte on April 9th, 1945, stopped in Cebu the same day and then left for Bohol. They arrived in Bohol on the 10th of April and staying until the 30th. They then arrived back in Cebu on May 1st. I've attached a copy of his record in JPEG. Hope it helps.
