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 58th Infantry Regiment belongs to the class of modern Army lineages created or maintained as the service expanded for global responsibilities and industrial-age war. Its story reflects organizational flexibility more than the long continuous field career of an older nineteenth-century 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.
As with many regiments in this range, its identity was preserved through lineage, honors, and redesignation even when the regiment itself was not continuously active as a full combat formation. That pattern was common in the twentieth-century Army.
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 58th Infantry remains part of the Army's broader institutional memory and of the record of its wartime expansion base.
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.
