Btry D 146th AAA Bn

Battery D, 146th Anti-Aircraft Artillery Battalion (Btry D, 146th AAA Bn) was an American military unit activated during World War II as part of the U.S. Army’s efforts to protect Allied forces and key assets from aerial attack. Initially organized and trained in the United States, the battalion deployed to the European Theater, where it provided vital air defense during campaigns such as the Normandy invasion and subsequent operations across France and Germany. Equipped with anti-aircraft guns, Battery D played a crucial role in defending convoys, airfields, and supply depots from enemy aircraft. Following the end of hostilities in Europe, the unit was demobilized as part of the postwar drawdown.
