Answer 1

The 507th Maintenance Company provided maintenance support to 5th Battalion, 52nd Air Defense Artillery (ADA) (PATRIOT), based at Fort Bliss, Texas.

The 5th Battalion 52nd Air Defense Artillery is an air defense artillery battalion in the United States Army. They are based at Fort Bliss, Texas. Known as "five-five-deuce", the battalion motto is "Fighting Deuce". The former motto was "One team, one fight!". The battalion is part of 11th Air Defense Artillery Brigade and the 32nd Army Air & Missile Defense Command (32nd AAMDC).



A trail vehicle convoy element of this unit was ambushed during the rapid advance towards Baghdad during Operation Iraqi Freedom on March 23, 2003. The 507th was last in a march column of over 600 vehicles from the 3rd Infantry Division. This element which included the heavier, slower vehicles of the 507th, made a wrong turn into Nasiriyah, a major crossing point over the Euphrates River northwest of Basra.

A U.S. Army investigation concluded that this wrong turn was the result of a navigational error compounded by a lack of rest, limited communications and human error.

In the summer of 2005, the 507th was disbanded and re-formed as E Company, 5/52 ADA BN .

Answer 2

Disbanded in 2005
