History

Established in 1775.

Recruiting for the U.S. Army began in 1775 with the raising and training of the Continentals to fight in the American Revolutionary War under Article I of the U.S. Constitution. The Command traces its organisational history to 1822, when Major General Jacob Jennings Brown, commanding general of the Army, initiated the General Recruiting Service.[5] For much of the rest of the 19^th century recruitment was left to the regimental recruiting parties, usually recruiting in their regional areas as was the practice in Europe.

Facilitating the transition to an all-​volunteer force, the Army created District Recruiting Commands (DRC) through the continental United States to direct the efforts of its recruiters among the civilian population. The DRC’s became «Battalions» in 1983.

Charlotte Company belongs the the Raleigh Recruting Battalion and the 2^nd Recruiting Brigade.
