The 60th Anti-Aircraft Artillery (AAA) Battalion was originally constituted during World War II to provide air defense for critical assets and troop concentrations. Activated in 1942, the unit saw service in the European Theater, notably protecting Allied forces during the campaigns in France and Germany from enemy aircraft. Following the war, the 60th AAA continued its mission through various reorganizations during the early Cold War era, adapting to new threats and technologies. The unit’s legacy is marked by its dedication to safeguarding friendly forces from aerial attacks and its adaptability in the evolving landscape of air defense warfare.
