60th Infantry Regiment
Modern Era, United States, Infantry
The 60th Infantry Regiment, the Go Devils, was organized in 1917 for service in World War I and quickly became one of the better-known regiments of the modern Army. Its early history was defined by divisional warfare rather than the older frontier pattern that shaped many lower-numbered regiments.
In the twentieth century the regiment became strongly associated with the 9th Infantry Division. It served with that division in World War I, World War II, and later in the Vietnam-era Army through battalion service, giving it one of the clearer repeated divisional identities among the higher-numbered infantry regiments.
The 60th Infantry therefore stands out in this range as a regiment with a distinct combat tradition and a recognizable place in the history of the modern U.S. Army.
