6:562nd FA

The 6th Battalion, 562nd Field Artillery (6/562nd FA) was a United States Army Reserve artillery unit activated during the Cold War era. Originally organized to provide fire support using 155mm towed howitzers, the battalion trained extensively in both direct and general support roles. Throughout its service, 6/562nd FA participated in numerous training exercises, honing its skills in artillery tactics and coordination with maneuver units. The battalion was later inactivated as part of Army Reserve force reductions and restructuring in the late 20th century, with its lineage preserved in artillery heritage.
