307th Engineer Battalion

The 307th Engineer Battalion was originally constituted in the National Army on August 5, 1917, and assigned to the 82nd Division during World War I, where it served with distinction in France. Reactivated for World War II, the battalion participated in key campaigns including Sicily, Normandy, and the Rhineland, earning several commendations for its combat engineering support. Throughout the Cold War and into the modern era, the 307th has continued to provide vital engineering capabilities, including mobility, survivability, and construction support in both peacetime and combat operations.
