184th Chemical Detachment

The 184th Chemical Detachment was a specialized unit within the United States Army, tasked with providing chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear (CBRN) support. Activated during the Cold War era, the detachment played a crucial role in conducting reconnaissance, decontamination, and hazard assessment operations to ensure the safety of troops and maintain operational readiness. Over its service, the 184th participated in numerous training exercises and supported both national and international missions, adapting to evolving CBRN threats. The unit was eventually inactivated or reorganized as part of broader Army restructuring efforts, but its legacy endures in the advancements made in military chemical defense.
