The 45th Engineers, originally constituted during World War I, have a distinguished history supporting U.S. Army operations through engineering expertise. Activated for both World Wars, the unit played critical roles in constructing bridges, roads, and fortifications under combat conditions in Europe and the Pacific. During the Vietnam War, the 45th Engineers were instrumental in building and maintaining essential infrastructure, often under enemy fire. In modern times, the unit has supported various missions, including disaster relief and overseas contingency operations, continuing its legacy of excellence and adaptability in military engineering.
