3:62nd FA

The 3rd Battalion, 62nd Field Artillery Regiment (3/62nd FA) traces its lineage to the 62nd Field Artillery, which was constituted in the National Army in 1917 and served with distinction during World War I. Reactivated and reorganized over the decades, the 3/62nd FA played pivotal roles in providing artillery support during major conflicts, including World War II, where it supported armored divisions across the European Theater. Throughout the Cold War, the battalion was an integral part of U.S. Army Europe, maintaining readiness and participating in numerous training exercises. In more recent years, the unit has contributed to operations in the Middle East, continuing its tradition of excellence in fire support and combined arms operations.
