The 94th Army Reserve Command (later redesignated 94th Regional Support Command and 94th Regional Readiness Command) was a regional command and control headquarters over most United States Army Reserve units throughout the six New England states of Maine, Massachusetts, Vermont, New Hampshire, Connecticut, and Rhode Island. For forty years, beginning in the late 1960s, the United States Army Reserve was divided up into a varying number of regional, branch-immaterial commands. Originally designated “army reserve commands” (“ARCOMs”), several were disbanded in and around 1995, while the remainder were redesignated “regional support commands” (“RSCs”) at that time and re-dubbed “regional readiness commands” (“RRCs”) in 2001. In addition to the RRCs, several mission-oriented commands were established, including training divisions and engineer commands. Like most RRCs, the 94th Regional Readiness Command was scheduled to be deactivated in fiscal year 2009 as part of the Army Reserve’s reorganization into a functionally based command structure reporting to respective major Army commands (“MACOMs”); plans were altered, the 94th became a training division headquartered at Fort Lee.

The 94th ARCOM/RSC/RRC wore the shoulder sleeve insignia of the 94th Infantry Division but did not, according to the United States Army Center of Military History, perpetuate the lineage of the old division and was thus not entitled to the division’s battle honors.[citation needed] Army Regulation 840-10 dictates that the distinguishing flag of an RRC features a white-bordered, 38.1 cm (15 in.) tall rendering of the shoulder sleeve insignia on a plain blue background, rather than on the horizontally divided bi-color background of red over blue as carried by an infantry division.

Although the 94th RRC did not carry lineage, as a whole, the 94th Military Police Company (within the 94th RRC) does still carry the lineage of the 94th Infantry Division, since the inception of the Military Police Corps. The 94th Military Police Company holds the Division’s battle honors, and prides themselves in having a direct link to their gallant WWII predecessors, especially. The 94th Military Police Company also served in Vietnam, Desert Storm, Bosnia, and Iraq, most recently. In 2003-04 the 94th MPs added a battle streamer to their Guidon when they were awarded the Valorous Unit Award for their actions in al-Anbar, hunting Iraqi Ba’ath members after the collapse of government; and, conducting Counter-Insurgency Operations against the increasing militant uprisings in Al-Qaim, Rutbah, Haditha, Baghdad, Ramadi and Fallujah. The 94th MPs were also awarded the “Order of the Spur” by Colonel Teeples of the 3d Armored Cavalry Regiment (3CR), as a nod to the combat action of the 94th Military Police Company during their mission with the 3d Cavalry Regiment. The history and spirit of the 94th Infantry Division lives on with them.
