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 113th Infantry Regiment reflects the Army's practice of preserving a wide range of numbered infantry identities through the modern era. Its value lies in organizational continuity and in the maintenance of lineage through changing force structures.
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.
Rather than a single continuous field-regiment story, the 113th Infantry is best understood through redesignation, honors, and the lineage system itself.
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.
That preserved identity keeps the regiment inside the Army's wider historical framework.
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.
