143rd Signal Battalion

The 143rd Signal Battalion was a communications unit of the United States Army, originally constituted during World War II. Activated in 1942, it provided critical signal support for command and control, ensuring reliable communications across various theaters of operation. The battalion was later assigned to the 3rd Infantry Division, where it played a vital role in both European campaigns and later Cold War missions. Following decades of service, the 143rd Signal Battalion was inactivated in 2004 as part of Army transformation efforts, with its legacy carried on by successor signal units.
