Several units of the 157th Infantry Brigade are assigned to Fort Jackson. The 157th In Bde was established in 1917 to fight as part of the 79th Infantry Division in World War I. Arriving in summer of 1918, the 157th In Bde fought with the 79th in Lorraine against a deeply entrenched German position, pushing deep into German-held territory, gaining about 6 miles in a war generally measured in feet. This gain, September 1918, stood until Armistice in November, one of the greatest pushes of the war. After the Great War the 157th was inactivated. The 157th In Bde was reactivated 1963-1995 and reactivated again in 2006, to the present.

The 193rd Infantry Brigade was originally constituted as the headquarters company in the 97th Infantry Division, in 1922. The unit was reorganized in early 1942 as the 97the Reconnaissance Troop, which landed in Europe March 1945 and fought near the Rhine as part of ongoing operations there. After fighting in Germany, and a short respite, the 97th was transferred to occupation duty in Japan. The unit was inactivated in place in 1946, then reactivated 1962-1994, and reactivated again in 2007.
