Not sure whether you mean the 173rd or the 3/325th but afaik neither were ever mentioned in published canon. However Frank Frey planned to use a reconstituted 173rd in a work which was to be called Lions of Africa and was set in East Africa but was never published. I'm presuming if it had been it would have been canon.

Frank's original notes are on this thread.

At least two fan pieces have been written on the East Africa region (one by Raellus, one by Olefin); both stuck with Frank's intent and placed the 173rd in the region.
