4:67 Armor Div Friedberg Germany

The 4th Battalion, 67th Armor Regiment (4/67 Armor), was a distinguished tank battalion stationed in Friedberg, Germany, as part of the 3rd Brigade, 3rd Armored Division during the Cold War. Known as the "Bandits," the battalion played a key role in NATO’s forward defense along the Fulda Gap, training rigorously to deter Warsaw Pact aggression. In 1990-1991, 4/67 Armor deployed to Saudi Arabia and participated in Operation Desert Storm, contributing to the liberation of Kuwait. After the end of the Cold War and the drawdown of U.S. forces in Europe, the unit was inactivated in the mid-1990s as part of the Army's restructuring.
