68th Signal Battalion

The 68th Signal Battalion was first constituted on 10 November 1941 in the Regular Army and activated on 1 June 1942 at Camp Blanding, Florida. During World War II, the battalion served in the European Theater, providing vital communications support for Allied operations. After the war, the unit was inactivated and reactivated several times, supporting major operations and contingencies, including missions in Southwest Asia during Operations Desert Shield and Desert Storm. Today, the 68th Signal Battalion remains a key element of the U.S. Army’s signal community, delivering tactical communications and network services to support command and control on the modern battlefield.
