A little history involving the 8th/240th:
The 240th Coast Artillery was organized 16 April 1924 as the Maine National Guard component of the Harbor Defenses of Portland (HD Portland), Maine. The 8th Coast Artillery was the Regular Army component of those defenses. The 240th's primary armory was in Portland, Maine. Colonel George E. Fogg, a World War I veteran, commanded the regiment from its organization in 1924 through at least 1941. In October 1944 the regiment was broken up.
Go Oozlefinches!! ( I did enough research to know this was their mascot.) I have no clue what an oozlefinch is though.
