The 23rd Infantry Division, more commonly known as the Americal Division of the United States Army was formed in May 1942 on the island of New Caledonia. In the immediate emergency following Pearl Harbor, the United States had hurriedly sent three individual regiments to defend New Caledonia against a feared Japanese attack. This division was formed as one of only two un-numbered divisions to serve in the Army during World War II.

- The 23rd Infantry Division, more commonly known as the Americal Division of the United States Army was formed in May 1942 on the island of New Caledonia. In the immediate emergency following Pearl Harbor, the United States had hurriedly sent three individual regiments to defend New Caledonia against a feared Japanese attack. This division was formed as one of only two un-numbered divisions to serve in the Army during World War II. After World War II the Americal Division was officially re-designated as the 23rd Infantry Division. However, it was rarely referred to as such, even on official orders. At the suggestion of a subordinate, the division's commander, Major General Alexander Patch, requested that the new unit be known as the Americal Division—the name being a contraction of "American, New Caledonian Division". This was unusual, as most U.S. divisions are known by a number.
- Die Americal Division (offiziell 23. US-Infanteriedivision) war eine Division der US-amerikanischen Infanterie im Zweiten Weltkrieg, die während des Pazifikkriegs auf den Salomonen und den Philippinen eingesetzt wurde. Nach ihrer Deaktivierung 1945 wurde die Division für einen eineinhalb-jährigen Kurzeinsatz in Panama wieder reaktiviert. 1967 stellte die US-Armeeführung die Division für den Vietnamkrieg neu auf. Dort führte sie bis 1971 Operationen im Chu-Lai-Gebiet durch.
- 23Rd Infantry Division (23. pěší divize) US Army "Americal" je jednotkou nechvalně proslavenou masakrem ve vesnici My Lai za Vietnamské války.
- 第23歩兵師団(だいにじゅうさんほへいしだん、U.S. Army 23rd Infantry Division)は、アメリカ陸軍の師団の一つ。1942年の編成当初の名称は、アメリカル師団(Americal Division)であり、師団番号を有していなかった。師団章は南十字星を模したものである。
- Дивизия «Америкал» — 23-я пехотная дивизия Армии США. Создана в мае 1942 года на острове Новая Каледония. После событий Перл-Харбора американское командование спешно направило три отдельных полка на оборону Новой Каледонии для отражения предполагаемой атаки японских войск. Хотя официальное название дивизии - 23-я пехотная, чаще всего, иногда даже в документах, ее называют «Americal» (от сокращения «American, New Caledonian Division»).
