428th Medical Battalion

The 428th Medical Battalion was constituted on 25 February 1943 and activated on 15 March 1943 at Camp Barkeley, Texas. During World War II, the battalion provided critical medical support to combat units, ensuring the treatment and evacuation of wounded soldiers in the European Theater of Operations. After the war, the 428th underwent several reorganizations and assignments within the U.S. Army Reserve. The unit continued to uphold its mission of delivering essential medical care and support during both peacetime and contingency operations until its eventual inactivation.
