76th Engineer Battalion

The 76th Engineer Battalion was first constituted on 1 October 1933 in the Regular Army and activated on 1 June 1941 at Fort Leonard Wood, Missouri. During World War II, the battalion played a critical role in constructing bridges, clearing obstacles, and supporting combat operations throughout the European Theater, including the Normandy Campaign. Following the war, the 76th Engineer Battalion participated in operations during the Korean War and later provided engineering support in Vietnam. Over the decades, the unit has continued to serve with distinction, adapting to modern missions and deployments in support of U.S. Army operations worldwide.
