Luckily, your Warzone Regiment and all of its members have been automatically transferred over as a Clan.

Raven Software disabled Regiments back at the start of Warzone Season 6 to usher in this new feature, and it’s now live in Vanguard. By heading to the Barracks, you’ll see that your old Regiment is now a Clan, and if you’re the leader, you can customize it as you please.
