26th Engineering

The 26th Engineering unit, established during World War II, was initially formed to provide critical combat engineering support in the European Theater. The unit specialized in constructing bridges, clearing mines, and fortifying defensive positions, playing a key role during the Allied advance across France and into Germany. After the war, the 26th Engineering continued to serve in various conflicts, including deployments during the Korean and Vietnam Wars, where it was instrumental in route clearance and infrastructure repair. Today, the unit remains an essential part of military operations, offering engineering expertise in both combat and humanitarian missions worldwide.
