The U.S. Armor School, established in 1940 at Fort Knox, Kentucky, became the premier institution for training American tank crews and developing armored warfare doctrine. Throughout World War II, the Korean War, and the Cold War, the school played a pivotal role in shaping U.S. armored tactics and technology. It provided instruction for officers, noncommissioned officers, and enlisted soldiers in all aspects of armored operations, maintenance, and leadership. In 2010, the Armor School relocated to Fort Benning, Georgia, as part of the Army's Base Realignment and Closure (BRAC) process, but its legacy at Fort Knox remains a cornerstone of U.S. armored history.
