501st S&T 1st AD

The 501st Support and Transportation Battalion (S&T), assigned to the 1st Armored Division (1st AD), traces its lineage to World War II, providing critical logistical and transportation support to armored units during major campaigns in North Africa and Europe. Reactivated and reorganized multiple times through the Cold War and into the modern era, the 501st S&T has consistently ensured the rapid movement of supplies, equipment, and personnel across complex operational environments. During Operations Desert Storm and Iraqi Freedom, the battalion played a vital role in sustaining frontline combat operations. Today, the 501st S&T Battalion remains a cornerstone of the 1st Armored Division’s ability to project power and maintain readiness in support of U.S. Army missions worldwide.
