64th Infantry Regiment
Modern Era, United States, Infantry
The 64th Infantry Regiment belongs to the Army's modern numbered regimental structure and reflects the service's repeated cycles of mobilization and reorganization in the twentieth century. It is representative of the many lineages preserved for future needs even when not continuously visible in the active field force.
Through the Army's lineage and honors system, regiments like the 64th retained institutional identity while the force shifted toward battalion- and brigade-based organizations.
Its historical value lies in that continuity and in what it reveals about the Army's long-term planning and organizational memory.
