FORT LEWIS

 is a major United States Army installation located in Pierce County, Washington, approximately 9 miles south-southwest of Tacoma. Since February 1, 2010, it has been part of Joint Base Lewis–McChord (JBLM), following its merger with McChord Air Force Base. It remains the premier military installation in the Northwest and is the only Army power projection base west of the Rocky Mountains in the continental U.S.

The 55th Artillery lineage is complex, having undergone numerous redesignations since its origin in 1917–1918:

  • World War I: Organized as the 55th Artillery (Coast Artillery Corps) in 1918, serving in France with 155mm guns.
  • Yes, the 55th Artillery has a long and storied history in HAWAII, primarily serving as a key part of the coastal defense system on Oahu for over two decades.
  • Pre-World War II and Pearl Harbor
    • Arrival: The 55th Artillery Regiment arrived in Honolulu on May 12, 1921, and was originally posted to FORT KAMEHAMEHA.
    • Mission: During the 1920s and 1930s, the unit was responsible for manning 155mm mobile seacoast guns to defend Pearl Harbor and other vital coastal areas.
    • December 7, 1941: On the day of the attack, the 55th was positioned at several strategic points around Oahu:
      • Batteries A, B, and C: Southwest coast between Pearl Harbor and Kaena Point.
      • Batteries D and E: Northeast coast.
      • Battery F: Stationed on SAND ISLAND to guard government property.
