19th PSYOPS

The 19th Psychological Operations Battalion (19th PSYOPS) is a U.S. Army Reserve unit specializing in psychological operations to influence, inform, and persuade target audiences in support of military objectives. Activated in the late 20th century, the unit has provided expertise in information operations, leaflet distribution, and broadcast media during major campaigns, including Operations Iraqi Freedom and Enduring Freedom. The 19th PSYOPS has worked alongside both U.S. and allied forces, tailoring messages to local populations to enhance mission effectiveness and support civil-military operations. Through its efforts, the battalion plays a crucial role in shaping perceptions and mitigating threats in complex operational environments.
