123rd Signal Battalion

The 123rd Signal Battalion was constituted in the United States Army in 1917 and has a distinguished history of providing communications support to military operations. Initially activated during World War I, the unit supported battlefield communications, a vital role it continued in World War II, notably supporting the 3rd Infantry Division during campaigns in North Africa, Italy, France, and Germany. The battalion was later reactivated during the Cold War and served through multiple deployments, including peacekeeping missions and operations in the Balkans. The 123rd Signal Battalion was inactivated in the early 2000s as part of Army force restructuring, but its legacy of technological innovation and steadfast support endures.
