The regiment formally entered service on 1 January 1776. During the 19th century a total of seven Artillery regiments were formed which contained a mixture of "heavy" artillery companies and "light" artillery batteries. The light artillery batteries took the role of field artillery although they did not use that designation. The seven artillery regiments were designated as regiments of artillery and were not distinguished as being either "coast" or "field" artillery as was the practice in the 20th century. </p><p>In the reorganization of the Army by the Act of 2 February 1901, the seven Artillery regiments were reorganized as the Artillery Corps. The Corps was split into 195 battery-sized units, called companies at the time, of Field Artillery and <a href="/wiki/U.S._Army_Coast_Artillery_Corps" class="mw-redirect" title="U.S. Army Coast Artillery Corps">Coast Artillery</a>. In 1907 the Artillery Corps was reorganized into the Field Artillery and the Coast Artillery Corps.<sup id="cite_ref-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Although presently Field Artillery and <a href="/wiki/Air_Defense_Artillery" class="mw-redirect" title="Air Defense Artillery">Air Defense Artillery</a> are separate branches, both inherit the traditions of the <a href="/wiki/Artillery" title="Artillery">Artillery</a> branch. </p><p>In 1907, the Field Artillery companies of the Artillery Corps were organized into six Field Artillery regiments.

In 1968 the Artillery branch divided into Field Artillery and Air Defense Artillery branches with the newly formed 1st through 7th Air Defense Artillery regiments retaining the lineage of the seven 19th century artillery regiments. </p><p>Although the oldest Artillery regiments in the Army are in the Air Defense Artillery branch, this is not necessarily the case for individual units below the regimental level.

(In order to promote esprit-de-corps, the first 7 regiments were linked to the original 7 regiments of artillery).

Each battalion carries an association with a parent regiment, even though the regimental organization no longer exists.
