Throughout history, the Soldiers of the 22nd Infantry Regiment have lived up to their official motto:

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

A Soldier of Company E, 22nd Infantry
poses for a photograph during the
Regiment's service in the Philippines,
1899-1905.

He is armed with the Model 1896
"Krag" rifle, for which he has its bayonet
and a dark blue Mills cartridge belt,
holding the .30-40 caliber rounds.

His field uniform consists of campaign hat,
chambray pullover shirt, khaki trousers,
leggings and shoes.

The history of the 22nd Infantry
in the Philippine Insurrection,
during the years 1899-1902
is now posted on this website.
The history of the Regiment
during the years 1902-1905,
in actions against the Moros,
will be presented in the near future.

The 22nd Infantry Monument needs your help.

A permanent memorial to the Soldiers of the 22nd Infantry

who have made the ultimate sacrifice in the service of their country

is well along into the construction phase.

Though a considerable amount of money has been raised,
the project needs funds to keep going and make the concept
seen at left a reality. Donations are tax deductible.

The purpose of this site is to provide a place for members of the 1st Battalion to post their photos,
stories and memories of their service with the 22nd Infantry.

We invite all who have served or are serving with the 1st Bn 22nd Inf to send us your pictures and thoughts
of your time with the 22nd, and we will post them on these pages. E-mail and regular mail addresses for submissions
can be found at the bottom of this page.

This is an ongoing project. Our ultimate aim is to detail the history of 1st Battalion.
As such, we consider ourselves to be historians. This is not a dues paying club; there are no membership fees.
All material here is presented solely for historical purposes. Depending upon the level of participation
and support from you, we can expand this site and make it a permanent testimony
to one of the US Army's finest Infantry Battalions.
