Modern Era, United States, Infantry
This second-pass battalion page ties each battalion icon more directly to the parent regiment's established story. Until a battalion-by-battalion lineage research pass is completed, the copy below should be read as regiment-specific context rather than as a final battalion lineage sheet.
This entry now anchors the battalion page in the regiment's origin or defining early identity, giving the 1st Battalion slot a more specific historical frame than the first scaffold pass.
The 106th Infantry Regiment is part of the Army's preserved set of higher-numbered regimental lineages. It reflects the administrative depth and mobilization potential built into the modern Army.
The 2d Battalion entry uses the regiment's middle or operational arc to give the page a clearer sense of how the parent unit developed over time.
Its identity was maintained through lineage and honors as the Army moved away from the old permanent regimental field structure and toward more flexible combined-arms formations.
The 3d Battalion entry now carries the regiment into its later or enduring modern identity, tightening the page around the way the lineage is remembered in the modern Army.
The 106th Infantry therefore forms part of the larger framework of Army continuity across modern organizational change.
Research note: This second pass replaces the generic scaffold text with regiment-specific context drawn from the parent regiment page. Dedicated battalion-level lineage research is still deferred to a later pass.
