63rd Signal Battalion

The 63rd Signal Battalion was first constituted on 10 November 1941 in the Regular Army and activated on 1 June 1942 at Camp Crowder, Missouri. During World War II, the battalion provided vital communications support in the European Theater, participating in campaigns such as Normandy, Northern France, Rhineland, Ardennes-Alsace, and Central Europe. After the war, the unit was inactivated and reactivated several times, serving in various capacities during the Korean War and the Cold War. In recent decades, the 63rd Signal Battalion has supported operations in Southwest Asia, including Operation Iraqi Freedom, ensuring reliable tactical communications for deployed U.S. Army forces.
