99th Infantry Regiment
Modern Era, United States, Infantry
The 99th Infantry Regiment belongs to the Army's broader set of modern numbered lineages retained for wartime expansion and organizational continuity. Its identity is part of the same institutional system that preserved many unit names beyond the smaller active field force.
Though not among the most famous continuously active regiments, it reflects the Army's long-standing practice of carrying history forward through official lineage and honors even when units changed mission or status.
The 99th Infantry is therefore another piece of the Army's deep modern organizational memory.
