This is really just a stub article at present, but I don't know how to mark it as such. Anyone who can point me in the right direction, please do so :) Aramis1250 02:37, 26 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I'm hopping on the edit train for this page. Expect verifiable sources in the next three to four days. Christian.nuccio (talk) 13:52, 20 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

School move[edit]

From http://www.army.mil/article/59527/, the school moved from Fort Knox to Fort Benning in June 2011. Should be added to the article. — MrDolomite • Talk 18:45, 15 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

After a short discussion on my talk page, I have invited Hinch32, who has commendably disclosed their conflict of interest, to make edit requests here. That's fine and not another incident of sockpuppetry. Thanks ~ ToBeFree (talk) 18:14, 20 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Reply 21-FEB-2020[edit]

  Edit request declined  

  • Some of the the requested changes are promotional, in that they use language and phrases that resemble that of a brochure (e.g., "initiates the transformation of over 28,000 civilian volunteers annually in order to prepare them for their development into disciplined Soldiers who are prepared to become valued members of the profession of arms"[a] and "The 194th Armored Brigade is focused on developing soldier [sic] in initial entry training—led by Drill Sergeants—and advanced armor and cavalry training via subject matter expert instructors.").
  • As noted by ToBeFree, references from reliable, independent, WP:SECONDARY sources would be welcomed here.
