23rd 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, 23rd 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 23rd Infantry Regiment, the Tomahawks, was created in the Civil War era and continued into the frontier and overseas Army that followed. It served in the Indian Wars and in the campaigns of American expansion at the end of the nineteenth century, becoming one of the Army's established regular regiments.
2d Battalion, 23rd 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.
Its twentieth-century history is especially tied to the 2nd Infantry Division and later to battalion service in Korea, Vietnam, and the post-Cold War Army. Like many older regiments, its most important modern service came through battalions fighting under division and brigade headquarters rather than as a full regiment on campaign.
3d Battalion, 23rd 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 23rd Infantry therefore bridges the old Regular Army and the modular modern Army, carrying a lineage that runs from frontier operations to twentieth-century divisional warfare and later expeditionary service.
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.
