US Army School, Europe

The US Army School, Europe, originally established after World War II, served as a premier center for military education and training for US forces stationed on the continent. Located at various times in Oberammergau and later in other sites across Germany, the school provided professional development courses ranging from leadership to technical specialties. Its mission supported the integration and readiness of US Army personnel within the NATO framework during the Cold War and beyond. Over the decades, the school adapted its curriculum to evolving military needs and played a key role in strengthening US-European military cooperation.
