The John F. Kennedy Special Warfare Center and School (USAJFKSWCS) was established in 1952 at Fort Bragg, North Carolina, as the Psychological Warfare Center and School, to train U.S. Army personnel in unconventional warfare and psychological operations. Renamed in 1960 to honor President John F. Kennedy’s vision and support for Special Forces, the center expanded its mission to include training for Special Forces, Civil Affairs, and Psychological Operations soldiers. Over the decades, USAJFKSWCS has become the premier institution for developing leaders and experts in irregular warfare. Today, it plays a critical role in preparing soldiers for complex global missions, upholding its legacy as the “Army’s Special Operations University.”
