Unit History

Chemical Replacement Training Command 1940–1947 (World War II) The Chemical Replacement Training Command was established during World War II to provide specialized training for soldiers assigned to chemical warfare units. Its primary mission was to prepare replacements for chemical service organizations, including chemical mortar battalions and decontamination units. The command operated several training centers across the United States, where soldiers received instruction in chemical weapons handling, defense procedures, and decontamination techniques. The Chemical Replacement Training Command played a crucial role in ensuring that the U.S. Army maintained a steady flow of trained personnel capable of supporting chemical warfare operations throughout the conflict. Following the end of World War II, the command was inactivated as the need for large-scale chemical warfare training diminished. References (AMA) GlobalSecurity.org.
