On 15 July 1943 the 10th Medical Battalion was reorganized and assigned to the 10th Mountain Division. During World War II the 10th Medical Battalion provided medical support for the 10th Mountain Division as it fought along the length of the Italian Peninsula. Following the end of World War II the 10th Medical Battalion was inactivated at Camp Carson, Colorado. On 1 July 1985 the 10th Medical Battalion was reactivated and again assigned to the 10th Mountain Division (LI) at Fort Drum, New York. On 1 October 1990 the 10th Medical Battalion was reorganized as the 210th Forward Support Battalion. On 24 August 1999, the battalion deployed to Bosnia-Herzegovina in support of Stabilization Force 6 (SFOR6) where it became the 210th Logistics Task Force.
