1st Battalion 109th Field Artillery Regiment
Kingston Armory

The 109th Field Artillery is one of the oldest units in continuous existence in the United States Armed Forces. It was organized under Colonel Zebulon Butler in the Wyoming Valley on October 17, 1775, nearly a year before the signing of the Declaration of Independence. The unit was founded as the 24th Regiment of the Connecticut Militia, since both Connecticut and Pennsylvania claimed possession of the region at the time, and to this day the color guard carries both state flags.
