4:67 ARMOR, FRIEDBERG

The 4th Battalion, 67th Armor Regiment (4/67 Armor), known as the "Bandits," was a distinguished armored unit of the U.S. Army stationed in Friedberg, Germany, during the Cold War and into the post-Cold War era. Part of the 3rd Brigade, 3rd Armored Division, 4/67 Armor played a critical deterrence role on NATO’s front line, maintaining readiness to counter any Warsaw Pact aggression. The battalion participated in Operation Desert Storm in 1991, where it contributed to the coalition's swift victory over Iraqi forces. After the Cold War drawdown, 4/67 Armor remained active until its inactivation in the late 1990s, leaving a legacy of excellence and professionalism.
