I think you meant 172nd Infantry Regiment vice 172nd Division. The 172nd Infantry Regiment was part of the 43rd Infantry Division. The division fought in the Pacific, in New Guinea, the Solomon Islands, and on Luzon in the Philippines Islands.

172nd Infantry Regiment of the 43rd Infantry Division. This was one of the Army units fighting in the Solomons in 1943.
