77th Infantry Regiment
Modern Era, United States, Infantry
The 77th Infantry Regiment was another higher-numbered lineage preserved in the Army's twentieth-century system. It belongs to the broader pool of units that supported expansion, mobilization, and later institutional continuity.
As with many similar regiments, its story is shaped by activation and redesignation rather than by a single uninterrupted field career. That does not diminish its value within the Army's lineage structure, which depended on preserving many such identities.
The 77th Infantry thus forms part of the Army's larger modern organizational history.
