The following is a reply to an inquiry I made concerning the reactivation of the 36th engineer battalion:Mr. Blanchford, I can find no reference to a reactivation of the 36th Engineer Battalion as an Active Army unit either in the current organization of activities at Fort Sill or in projected BRAC realignments here. If there are derivatives of the original 36th in the Reserve Components and they were activated at some time for deployment for current operations, that unit may have mobilized here prior to deployment, but is no longer here.Dave SaulActing DirectorQuality Assurance OfficeU.S. Army Fires Center of http://www.fortirwin2vietnam36theng.org/HOME.html 36th Fort Irwin & Vietnam |

This is the response to an email I sent Elmore Concerning the 36th engineer rumor. It is the 36th Group being re-designated 36th engineer "brigade":http://findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_m0FDF/is_36/ai_n18727403As we continue transforming to a Modular Engineer Force, we will activate the 4th Engineer Battalion at Fort Carson. In FY07, the following units will be activated: 326th Engineer Battalion. 62d Engineer Battalion, 7th Engineer Battalion, and the 11th Engineer Battalion. We reflagged the 36th Engineer Group to the 36th Engineer Brigade and will relocate the unit to Fort Hood. I would like to personally welcome the 94th Engineer Battalion advance party from Grafenwoehr, Germany, as it begins to restation here at Fort Leonard Wood. Some of these great Soldiers are here preparing their motor pool and headquarters to receive the main body. Fort Leonard Wood welcomes these great Wolverine Warriors.http://www.20thengineerbrigadereunion.com/36th/Seahorse_New.html http://www.fortirwin2vietnam36theng.org/HOME.html 36th Fort Irwin & Vietnam |
