Hq & Hq Co 2d BG 10th Inf. Ft. Davis, C.Z.

Headquarters and Headquarters Company, 2d Battle Group, 10th Infantry (Hq & Hq Co, 2d BG, 10th Inf.) was stationed at Fort Davis, Canal Zone (C.Z.) during the late 1950s and early 1960s. The unit was part of the United States Army’s commitment to the defense of the Panama Canal, a vital strategic asset. During its time at Fort Davis, the 2d Battle Group conducted jungle warfare training, security operations, and participated in joint exercises with other U.S. and allied forces in the region. The unit’s presence contributed significantly to stability in the Canal Zone during the Cold War, before its eventual inactivation and reorganization as part of Army-wide structural changes in the early 1960s.
