Modern Era, United States, Infantry
The 118th Infantry Regiment reflects the Army's broad modern-era lineage system, in which unit names and honors were preserved across changes in tactical organization. It belongs to the larger institutional fabric of mobilization, redesignation, and continuity.
Such regiments often remained visible primarily through official lineage rather than through uninterrupted independent regimental service.
The 118th Infantry therefore remains part of the Army's preserved organizational memory.
