1:36th Field Artillery

The 1st Battalion, 36th Field Artillery Regiment (1-36 FA) was originally constituted in the Regular Army in 1918 as part of the 12th Division. Reactivated and reorganized multiple times throughout its history, the unit served with distinction during World War II, participating in major campaigns across North Africa, Sicily, Italy, and Central Europe. The battalion provided critical fire support in both World War II and later during the Cold War as part of U.S. Army Europe. Today, the 1-36 FA continues its legacy of excellence, supporting U.S. and allied operations with advanced artillery capabilities.
