37TH ARMOR REGIMENT

The 37th Armor Regiment was constituted in 1941 and activated at Fort Knox, Kentucky, as part of the U.S. Army’s rapid expansion during World War II. The regiment fought with distinction in the European Theater, participating in campaigns such as Normandy, Northern France, Rhineland, Ardennes-Alsace, and Central Europe. After World War II, the unit underwent several reorganizations, serving in various armored divisions and engaging in Cold War deterrence duties in Europe. Elements of the 37th Armor Regiment have since supported operations in the Gulf War, Iraq, and Afghanistan, maintaining a proud legacy of excellence in armored warfare.
