U.S. Army

The US Army is the largest branch of the United States military. It is responsible for land-based military operations and is comprised of soldiers who are trained to defend the country and its interests. The Army has a long history of service, dating back to the Revolutionary War, and plays a crucial role in national defense and security. Soldiers in the Army are trained in combat skills, leadership, and teamwork to carry out missions both domestically and internationally.

The 314th Infantry Regiment was constituted in the National Army on August 5, 1917, and assigned to the 79th Division. It served with distinction during World War I, most notably participating in the Meuse-Argonne Offensive. Reactivated for World War II, the regiment fought in the European Theater, including campaigns in Normandy, Northern France, Rhineland, Ardennes-Alsace, and Central Europe. After World War II, the 314th Infantry Regiment underwent several reorganizations and is currently part of the U.S. Army Reserve, continuing its legacy of service.
