This unique unit stands out as the only religious group in U.S. military history to serve in federal service, entirely composed of volunteers from one faith and bearing a religious title. In 1847, after being uprooted from their homes in Nauvoo, Illinois, the Mormons were in Iowa when the U.S. Army called for 500 volunteers to support the Mexican-American War. From July 1847 to July 1848, the battalion embarked on a challenging trek of nearly 2,100 miles, traveling from Council Bluffs, Iowa, to San Diego, California. Their arduous march and dedicated service played a crucial role in the cession of significant territory from Mexico to the United States, including the Gadsden Purchase of 1853.
