Assigned to the Pacific Theater, the 112th Cavalry participated in several key campaigns, including operations in New Guinea, New Britain, and the Philippines. The regiment distinguished itself in amphibious assaults and jungle warfare, notably during the Battle of Arawe and the liberation of Luzon. Following the end of hostilities, the 112th Cavalry was inactivated on 26 January 1946 in Japan. 1948–1957 (Early Cold War / Korea) After World War II, the 112th Cavalry Regiment was reorganized and federally recognized in the Texas National Guard.
