Best Answer

Part of an artillery battalion. US artillery battalions included three firing batteries, with the actual cannon, plus an "HQ and HQ Battery" and a service battery. They called the service battery a "battery" just to be consistent. The infantry has companies, cavalry has troops, artillery has batteries.
