It keeps growing and growing, and you want to be part of its growing pains." Many of the local communities have become very attached to Fort Monmouth because of the friendship instilled...not for just a war period but for as long as...Fort Monmouth...will inhabit Monmouth County. - From “A Brief History of the Beginnings of the Fort Monmouth Radio Laboratories,” Rebecca Klang, 1942 FOREWORD The name “Monmouth” has been synonymous with the defense of freedom since our country’s inception. Scientists, engineers, program managers, and logisticians here have delivered technological breakthroughs and advancements to our Soldiers, Sailors, Airmen, Marines, and Coast Guardsmen for almost a century. These innovations have included the development of FM radio and radar, bouncing signals off the moon to prove the feasibility of extraterrestrial radio communication, the use of homing pigeons through the late-1950s, frequency hopping tactical radios, and today’s networking capabilities supporting our troops in Overseas Contingency Operations.

  • ARMY COMMUNICATOR 150Th Anniversary Edition
    Chief of Signal Significant accomplishments behind, challenges ahead We have certainly come a long way over the past 150 years. Beginning in 1860 with the inventor of the very first formal visual signaling system for the Army, Major Albert J. Myer, our first Chief of Signal, to the advanced information technologies we have today; it has been a tumultuous climb for all those who served in our Signal Regiment. Significant changes have coursed throughout the world during the past three years as we orchestrated communications in two combat theaters and advanced American interests globally. We are downsizing our military forces in Iraq where elections have taken place twice, demonstrating that this country is well on its way to establishing democracy and becoming a stabilized nation in the Middle East. As the threat in Afghanistan continues to grow, we are anticipating an increased military presence in that country for the foreseeable future. Natural disasters continue devastating areas of the United States and other parts of the world. The hybrid nature of the threats to our nation are forcing us to become more agile and adaptable as we learn to operate in complex, uncertain environments. The way our young Soldiers and leaders learn today is very different from the way our senior members of the force learned 10 or 20 years ago. The dramatic growth of information technologies fielded to our forces has placed unprecedented demands on our Regimental Soldiers at all echelons. For us, all these changes in our world demand change within our Regiment and institution. Over the past three years we continued modifying our enlisted force structure to ensure we have the right MOS to meet the requirements of a modular force.

Photo by William T. Graves. “It is not a field of a few acres of ground, but a cause, that we are defending, and whether we defeat the enemy in one battle, or by degrees, the consequences will be the same.” Thomas Paine, 1777 "The Crisis" i 1 On January 28, 2006 at Hopewell Presbyterian Church, Beattie's Ford Road in Huntersville, North Carolina, a memorable commemorative ceremony was held honoring the life and death of North Carolina Patriot militia Gen. William Lee Davidson and the brave Patriots who defended Cowen's Ford of the Catawba River on February 1, 1781 from the rapid advance of Lord Cornwallis' army from Ramsour's Mill. To the lament of bagpipes and under the majestic beauty of the Carolina blue skies, heritage societies laid wreaths by the memorial to the Patriot hero. In the historic sanctuary of Hopewell Presbyterian Church, founded in 1762 by Scott Irish Presbyterian immigrants in Northern Mecklenburg, North Carolina, SCAR editors, Charles B. Baxley and David P. Reuwer, discussed the conditions that created and sustained the American Revolution as epitomized by the rear guard action of Gen. William Lee Davidson and 300 brave militia who defended Cowan’s Ford against the advance of Lord Cornwallis' southern army. Miss Megan Dunbar, (left) of Lincolnton, NC sings “America the Beautiful”.

  • U. S. ARMY SHOULDER SLEEVE INSIGNIA AUTHORIZED SINCE 1989 (Revised June 2013)
    U. S. ARMY SHOULDER SLEEVE INSIGNIA AUTHORIZED SINCE 1989 (Revised June 2013) I invite my friends to use this document freely and share with other collectors. It was created to identify SSI authorized by TIOH after the publication of Richard W. Smith’s book “Shoulder Sleeve Insignia of the U.S. Army 1946 - 1989” so I have selected 1 January 1990 as the starting point for this document. I have not addressed redesignations of pre-1990 SSIs, but the 1106th and 1109th Signal Brigades are included in this document because their new brigade number designation can cause confusion. Collectors are finding several of the new patches with size and color variations. The only variations listed in this document are those that are documented TIOH changes of the original design of the SSI. I want to thank COL Mike Jorgensen for meticulously editing and adding to this document.
