HHB 31st ADA BDE

The Headquarters and Headquarters Battery, 31st Air Defense Artillery Brigade (HHB, 31st ADA BDE) traces its origins to its activation in 1918 at Fort Monroe, Virginia, as a coastal artillery unit. Over the decades, the brigade has been reorganized and redesignated several times, serving in various air defense roles throughout World War II, the Cold War, and beyond. Reactivated in 1967, the 31st ADA Brigade has since been a key component in the U.S. Army’s air and missile defense, deploying in support of operations such as Desert Storm and Iraqi Freedom. Today, stationed at Fort Sill, Oklahoma, the brigade continues its mission to provide protection against aerial and missile threats, maintaining readiness to support global operations.
