US combat engineers call themselves sappers, so yes the 37E has sappers. That answer isn't necessarily true. Not all Combat Engineers are considered "Sappers." There is actually a "Sapper" school, which is sort of the "Ranger" school for Combat Engineers. Yes, there ARE Sappers in the 37th Engineer Battalion but only because they have sent people to Sapper School, which is also located at Ft Leonard Wood, MO, just like the Combat Engineer AIT training. Trust me, I was there. I also was in the 37th Engineer Bn. and I went to Sapper School.
'In Theater' refers to serving in a combat (IE: Afghanistan) or operational (IE: Kuwait) environment.
I am unable to find any record of the 1138th Engineer Combat Battalion being stationed in Iceland. Furthermore, I am unable to find any record of an 1138th Engineer Combat Battalion being activated during WW 2.
