Unit History & Information
The 193rd Infantry Brigade was activated in the Panama Canal Zone in August 1962 to provide ground defence of the canal. Its Panama service included infantry units at Fort Kobbe and participation in Operation Just Cause in December 1989. The brigade remained in Panama after the operation and inactivated in October 1994 as the United States reduced its military presence under the canal treaties. Its later reactivation at Fort Jackson in 2007 began a different chapter as a basic-training brigade.
