172nd Infantry Regiment Battalions
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.
1st Battalion, 172nd Infantry Regiment
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 172nd Infantry Regiment is one of the preserved infantry designations that continued in Army lineage records after structural change.
2d Battalion, 172nd Infantry Regiment
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.
Like many regiments of its era, its enduring significance rests in the preservation of designation, honors, and symbolism.
3d Battalion, 172nd Infantry Regiment
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 172nd Infantry remains part of the Army's maintained regimental tradition.
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.
