559th FA Group

The 559th Field Artillery Group was constituted during World War II and activated on 20 January 1944 at Fort Sill, Oklahoma. The unit deployed to the European Theater, where it provided crucial artillery support during major campaigns, including the Rhineland and Central Europe operations. After the war, the 559th FA Group continued to serve in various capacities during the early Cold War period. Eventually, the unit was inactivated as part of postwar military restructuring, but its legacy remains as a vital contributor to Allied artillery operations in WWII.
