1-23rd infantry battalion
U.S. Army
The 1st Battalion, 23rd Infantry Regiment (1-23 IN), known as "Tomahawks," traces its origins to the formation of the 23rd Infantry Regiment in 1812. The battalion has fought in major conflicts, including the Indian Wars, World Wars I and II, Korean War—where it earned a Presidential Unit Citation for actions at Chipyong-ni—and the Global War on Terrorism with deployments to Iraq and Afghanistan. Throughout its history, 1-23 IN has been recognized for its courage and adaptability, serving under various divisions such as the 2nd Infantry Division and the 7th Infantry Division. Today, it continues to uphold its motto, “We Serve,” as an integral part of the U.S. Army’s mission.
