It is headquartered in Indianapolis, Indiana, and contains Army National Guard units from Indiana, Ohio, Kentucky, Illinois. Michigan and Other States. Formed in 1917, the division earned the special designation "Cyclone Division" after the division's training camp at Camp Shelby, Mississippi, was damaged by a springtime tornado. Deployed to France in the closing days of the Great War, the 38th Division was broken up to provide fillers for combat formations. At the end of the war, the 38th Division demobilized and after a brief period of inactivity, was reconstituted and reorganized in the National Guard on 16 March 1923. The 38th Division was inducted into federal service on 17 January 1941 as the United States prepared for entry into World War II. The Division returned to Camp Shelby to reorganize as a triangular infantry division and train for combat. The 38th Infantry Division deployed to the Pacific theater in January 1944, initially to New Guinea where the division saw limited combat after final training. In December, the division deployed into Leyte, Philippines to support clearing and security operations. On 29 January 1945, the 38th Infantry Division took part in the combat landing against the Japanese held Southern Zambales Province on the island of Luzon. Afterwards, the 38th Infantry Division took part in the operations to clear Zig Zag Pass and the Bataan peninsula, and to secure Corregidor and Manila Bay. In recognition of their contributions in clearing the Philippines, the 38th Infantry Division received the nickname "The Avengers of Bataan". Quickly demobilized after World War II, the 38th Infantry Division was reorganized and federally recognized on 5 March 1947 at Indianapolis, Indiana. During the intervening years, the 38th Infantry Division underwent numerous reorganizations while still retaining the designation as an infantry division. The 38th Infantry Division headquarters mobilized in support of Hurricane Katrina relief operations in 2005, exercising command and control over all National Guard elements deployed in the state of Mississippi. Since 11 September 2001, units of the division have participated in Operation Enduring Freedom (in Kuwait, Afghanistan, the Balkans, Cuba, and the Horn of Africa) and Operation Iraqi Freedom. In 2009, the 38th Infantry Division provided a headquarters element (designated Task Force Cyclone) to command and control counterinsurgency operations in Regional Command East, Afghanistan from August 2009 through June 2010. The 38th Infantry Division headquarters had responsibility for the domestic all-hazards response team (DART) mission in support of the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) in the event of a major incident in the eastern half of the United States. Most recently the 38th Infantry Division headquarters deployed in support of Operation Spartan Shield (OSS) in 2019 and 2020.

Elle est stationnée à Indianapolis dans l'Indiana et comprend des unités de l'Army National Guard venant de l'Indiana, de l'Ohio, du Kentucky, du Delaware, du Michigan et du Tennessee. L'unité apparaît en 1917, prenant le surnom de Cyclone Division après que le Camp Shelby où elle s'entraîne a été frappé par une tornade. Cette référence se retrouve sur l'insigne de la division qui mêle un C et un Y entrecroisés. Déployée en France lors des derniers jours de la Grande Guerre, ses différentes unités sont dispersées dans d'autres divisions pour combler les pertes. À la fin de la guerre, elle est démobilisée avant d'être reconstituée le 16 mars 1923 dans la Garde nationale. Elle passe sous contrôle fédéral le 17 janvier 1941 alors que les États-Unis s'apprêtent à participer à la Seconde Guerre mondiale. Elle revient s'entraîner au Camp Shelby et est déployée sur le front du Pacifique en janvier 1944 en Nouvelle-Guinée où elle connaît ses premiers combats tout en parachevant son entraînement. En décembre, elle est déployée à Leyte dans les Philippines pour participer à la conquête de l'île. Le 29 janvier 1945, la 38e division prend part au débarquement dans la province de Zambales sur l'île de Luçon. Par la suite, elle participe à la bataille de Bataan et conquiert Corregidor et la baie de Manille. Du fait de ces actions, elle reçoit le surnom des « vengeurs de Bataan » (Avengers of Bataan). Rapidement démobilisée après la guerre, elle est réorganisée le 5 mars 1947 à Indianapolis. Par la suite, elle subit différentes réformes de son organisation tout gardant la dénomination de 38e division d'infanterie. Elle est notamment mobilisée dans le cadre des opérations liées à l'ouragan Katrina en 2005, supervisant l'action des éléments de la garde nationale dans le Mississippi.
