II Corps

II Corps is a designation used by several military organizations, most notably by the United States Army. Formed during the American Civil War in 1862, the Union Army’s II Corps played a pivotal role in major battles such as Antietam, Gettysburg, and the Overland Campaign. In World War I and World War II, II Corps was reactivated, serving in campaigns in North Africa, Italy, and Western Europe, including the famous Battle of Kasserine Pass. The unit has since been periodically reactivated for training and operational purposes, demonstrating a legacy of adaptability and distinguished service.
