The 2nd Engineer Battalion is an engineering battalion in the United States Army which can trace its lineage back to 1861. 2d Battalion of Engineers expanded reorganized and redesignated 1 July-1 August 1916 as the 2d Regiment of Engineers. 2d Regiment of Engineers expanded 21 May-20 June 1917 to form the 2d 4th and 5th Regiments of Engineers 4th and 5th Regiments of Engineers-hereafter separate lineages. 2d Regiment of Engineers redesignated 29 August 1917 as the 2d Engineers.

The Regiment participated in Mexican Expedition: Mexico 1916-1917 and World War I: Aisne; Aisne-Marne; St. Mihiel; Meuse-Argonne; Lorraine 1918; Ile de France 1918. General Lejeune wrote in the Introduction that "In the last battle of the war it the Regiment threw two foot-bridges across the Meuse in the face of withering machine guns and heavy artillery fire thereby enabling the advanced battalions of the Division to cross the river and seize the highest on the east bank.

The following appeared on 28 October 1920 in The Columbus Ledger: A Columbus Boy's Distinguished Military Service. Hundreds of Columbus people recall him pleasantly-- plain Will Mitchell then now Colonel William A. Mitchell of the United States army. It was only natural that the young man's thoughts should turn toward a military career as his older brother Colonel Americus Mitchell was then an officer in the United States army. A local sponsor became greatly interested in him and was of substantial assistance in obtaining his appointment to the West Point Military Academy from the Fourth Georgia district. His army record subsequently was one of steady advancement. During the world War Colonel Mitchell organized the 20th Engineers a forestry regiment containing about 27000 men and shipped it to Europe going over himself with the last detachment of the regiment. This was perhaps the largest regiment ever organized. Shortly after he reached France Colonel Mitchell was placed in command of the 2nd Engineers this regiment constituting the Engineer regiment of the 2nd Division. He served with this regiment from Chateau Thierry to the armistice and later on became corps engineer of the 8th corps. Those familiar with world-war history of course know of the famous Second Division and his regiment constituted one of the most efficient parts of this great division. For his services he was awarded several medals by the French one of them the second highest honor given by the French government and the distinguished service medal by the United States. Colonel Mitchell then became an instructor at Fort Leavenworth. United States Army, Second Regiment of Engineers hardcover
