The 160th Infantry Regiment is an infantry regiment of the United States Army. The 1st Battalion, 160th Infantry is a light infantry component of the 79th Infantry Brigade Combat Team (IBCT).
Originally designated the 7th California, the 160th Infantry Regiment traces their lineage back to the early days of California statehood when the call went out and 17,000 men volunteered for service in the Civil War under the 7th Regiment California Volunteer Infantry.[5] The 1st Battalion, 160th Infantry is now headquartered in the California Army National Guard Inglewood Armory which houses a Regimental room dedicated to preserving the rich history of the 160th Infantry Regiment.[6][7]
