75th Maintenance Battalion

The 75th Maintenance Battalion was first constituted during World War II, activated on 14 July 1942 at Camp Barkeley, Texas. The unit played a critical role in providing maintenance support for armored and mechanized forces throughout the European Theater, ensuring operational readiness during key campaigns. After the war, the battalion was inactivated and later reactivated during the Cold War to support U.S. Army forces stationed in Europe. Over subsequent decades, the 75th Maintenance Battalion continued to adapt, offering essential logistical and technical support in various theaters, including deployments in support of operations in Southwest Asia.
