29th Engineers

The 29th Engineers was first constituted in the National Army during World War I and organized at Camp Devens, Massachusetts, in 1918. Initially specializing in gas and flame operations, the unit provided critical support in chemical warfare and engineering tasks in France. During World War II, the 29th Engineer Battalion was reactivated and contributed to construction, mapping, and logistical operations in various theaters. Over the decades, the unit has adapted to evolving military needs, supporting both combat and humanitarian missions, and remains an integral part of the U.S. Army Engineer Regiment today.
