1:29th Infantry

The 1st Battalion, 29th Infantry Regiment (1/29th Infantry) traces its roots back to the original 29th Infantry Regiment, constituted in 1813. The battalion has served in multiple conflicts, including World War II, where it participated in the Normandy landings and subsequent campaigns across Europe. In the postwar era, the 1/29th Infantry has played a key role as a training unit at Fort Benning (now Fort Moore), Georgia, providing expert instruction in infantry tactics and weapons. Today, the battalion continues its legacy by training soldiers in advanced marksmanship, maneuver, and leadership, supporting the readiness of the United States Army.
