51st Coast Artillery Regiment (Tractor Drawn) 1940–1947 (World War II) The 51st Coast Artillery Regiment (Tractor Drawn) was constituted in the Regular Army and activated during World War II as part of the U.S. Army’s coastal defense forces. The regiment was equipped with mobile, tractor-drawn artillery designed to provide flexible coastal defense against enemy naval threats. Throughout the war, the 51st Coast Artillery Regiment was primarily tasked with defending key coastal installations in the United States and its territories. The unit did not see overseas combat but played a vital role in homeland security during the conflict. Following the end of World War II, the regiment was inactivated as the need for large-scale coastal artillery diminished with changing military technology and strategy.
