62nd Coast Artillery Regiment (Anti-Aircraft) 1940–1947 (World War II) The 62nd Coast Artillery Regiment (Anti-Aircraft) was constituted in the Regular Army and activated on 10 February 1941 at Fort Totten, New York. The regiment was organized to provide anti-aircraft defense for key installations and participated in the defense of the continental United States during the early years of World War II. In 1943, the regiment was broken up and its elements reorganized and redesignated as separate anti-aircraft artillery battalions, reflecting the Army’s shift from regimental to battalion-based anti-aircraft units. The regiment’s lineage ended with this reorganization, and its elements continued to serve in various capacities throughout the remainder of the war.
