297th Regional Support Group

The 297th Regional Support Group (297th RSG)is a unit of the Alaska National Guard since 2016 when the AKARNG redesignated the 297th Battlefield Surveillance Brigade as the 297th RSG.

The unit's lineage originates in the 207th Infantry Group that was reorganized into the 297th BFSB in 2008. Originally, the 207th Infantry Group was constituted on 8 January 1964 in the Army National Guard as the 38th Special Forces Detachment. It was federally recognized on 20 January 1964 at Anchorage, Alaska. The 38th Special Forces Company was reorganized and redesignated the 207th Infrantry Group (Arctic Reconnaissance) by Permanent Orders 10-1 of October 1, 1976. The 297th BfSB became the 297th Regional Support Group on September 1, 2016.

In 2025, soldiers of the group deployed to 10 bases across Poland, Latvia, Lithuania and Estonia.
