Artillerie FC was founded by soldiers of the [[16th Artillery Regiment (Yonderre)|16th Arillery Regiment]] based in the [[Nouvelle-Estia]] barracks on the 6th of December, 1913. Artillerie joined the [[Ligue Yonderre]] in 1918 and has never since been relegated to [[Ligue 2]], holding the record for the longest time in the [[Ligue Yonderre]]. Artillerie won their first title in 1923-24 when they defeated [[FC 1908]] in the [[ASY-Supercup]] final. Artillerie had their first [[Ligue Yonderre]] title in the 1933-34 season, ending the streak of [[FC Stahl Toubourg]] who had won the three previous seasons. Artillerie contended the top spot in the [[Ligue Yonderre]] against top teams [[FC Stahl Toubourg]], [[Donnebourg SC]] and [[AS Castruppe]] throughout the 1930s under the leadership of their manager Guy Souyer. Artillerie FC fell behind during the 1950s and 60s but remained in the 10 top placed clubs of the [[Ligue Yonderre]] regardless except for 1953 when they came 13th. A focus on home-grown talent development bore fruit in the late 1960s, and in the 1973-74 season Artillerie won their first double, achieving both the [[ASY-Supercup]] and the [[Ligue Yonderre]] first place. | Artillerie FC was founded by soldiers of the [[16th Artillery Regiment (Yonderre)|16th Arillery Regiment]] based in the [[Nouvelle-Estia]] barracks on the 6th of December, 1913.
