Traditions and History
Delta Company traces its lineage back to Charlie Company, of the 1st Battalion. By 2009, the 7th Cavalry Gaming Regiment had launched their Arma 2 presence, and Charlie Company supported the 1st Battalion with Mechanized Infantry. By 2011, the Regiment had expanded its Arma 2 presence and split mechanized and light infantry roles. Thus, Delta Company was created and assigned Mechanized Infantry, and Charlie Company remained in the light infantry role.
Deactivation
Delta Company was de-activated in 2014, when all Mechanized infantry capabilities were transferred to Bravo Company.
