7th Army:USAREUR Soldiers Chorus

The 7th Army/USAREUR Soldiers Chorus was established in 1952 as part of the 7th Army Symphony Orchestra in Stuttgart, Germany, to boost morale and strengthen cultural ties with European allies during the Cold War. As the official chorus of United States Army Europe (USAREUR), the ensemble performed a diverse repertoire ranging from patriotic American songs to classical and folk music across Europe. Their performances supported U.S. diplomatic and military missions, serving both American troops and European audiences. Over the decades, the Soldiers Chorus became a symbol of goodwill and camaraderie, representing the professionalism and spirit of the U.S. Army in Europe until its deactivation in 1991.
