Activated at Oakland, California on September 16, 1997, primarily from personnel, equipment and facilities of the inactivating 140th Military Intelligence Battalion, headquartered in Bell, California, and the 373rd Military Intelligence Battalion, headquartered in Oakland, California, the 368th MI Battalion retained neither the lineage nor colors of either inactivating battalion. Initially subordinate to the 259th Military Intelligence Group, the 368th Military Intelligence Battalion had companies and detachments located in Oakland, Bell, Phoenix, Arizona, Fort Huachuca, Arizona and Tumwater, Washington. Following the terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001, the 368th trained, mobilized and deployed counterintelligence and all-source intelligence Soldiers in support of the Global War on Terror to Afghanistan and Iraq, as well as Fort Lewis, Washington, the US Naval Base at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba and Fort Richardson, Alaska. Due to BRAC realignment, the headquarters was moved to a new facility at Camp Parks, California in 2010. The 368th MI Battalion had Charlie Company located at the General George Smith Patton, Jr. United States Army Reserve Center in Bell, California until 2014 when the battalion reorganized its entire footprint to Camp Parks, California.Insignia
