USAFAS

The United States Army Field Artillery School (USAFAS), located at Fort Sill, Oklahoma, was established in 1911 to train and develop field artillery officers and soldiers. Over the decades, USAFAS has played a pivotal role in advancing artillery doctrine, tactics, and technology, ensuring the effectiveness of U.S. Army fire support on battlefields across the world. The school has adapted through both world wars, the Cold War, and into the modern era, incorporating innovations such as precision-guided munitions and digital fire control systems. Today, USAFAS remains the premier institution for field artillery education, shaping leaders and units that provide critical firepower for the Army’s combined arms operations.
