126th Infantry Regiment
Modern Era, United States, Infantry
The 126th Infantry Regiment is one of the preserved higher-numbered regimental identities maintained by the Army through the modern era. It reflects the service's need to retain organizational memory and expansion depth at the same time.
Its continuity was carried mainly through lineage and honors rather than through one uninterrupted active regimental field life.
The 126th Infantry therefore remains part of the Army's long institutional continuity.
